If desired, add a few drops of flavor extract for a hint of extra taste.
3. Dip the Apples:
Working quickly, dip each apple into the hot candy coating, covering it completely. Twirl the apple to ensure an even coating.
Allow any excess candy to drip off before placing the apple on the prepared baking sheet to cool.
4. Let the Apples Set:
Allow the candy coating to harden at room temperature. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
5. Optional: Add Spooky Details:
For an extra touch of Halloween spookiness, you can use edible black gel or decorating icing to draw spider webs, creepy faces, or other eerie designs on the hardened candy coating.
For a more sinister look, you can sprinkle a little edible glitter or use a small brush to dust the apples with edible silver or gold dust for a “poisonous” effect.
Tips:
Candy Temperature: Ensure the candy coating is at the right temperature (300°F/150°C) for a crisp, smooth finish. If it cools too much before dipping, it may become too thick and difficult to work with.
Safety: Be cautious with the hot candy mixture to avoid burns. The candy can reach very high temperatures.
Apple Prep: Thoroughly dry the apples after washing to ensure the candy coating sticks properly.
