We were in the grocery store one day, and Wyatt saw a display of different kinds of "toffee apples". He wanted some then, but there was no way I was paying $3 for an apple so I told him we'd make some! We bought this Caramel apple making kit and 5 Red Delicious apples and it cost about $4 for it all. I was going to do the whole shebang with the real caramels you melt and dip the apple and all that but anything that involves temperamental caramel and a candy thermometer spells a recipe for distaster for me...so we went with this...haha! Andrew's mom was in town for a few days so she helped too!
It was all super easy to do. I forgot to take a picture of the caramel circles that came in the package, but you just pull them off the wax paper, stretch them a bit, and then wrap them around the apple, then stick the popsicle stick in the top (sticks were in the kit). I did most of the caramel pulling and sticking and the boys took care of the sticks. They turned out really yummy! I'll be picking caramel out of my teeth for days...but yummy. :-)
