Red Rose Candy Apples

INGREDIENTS:

Granny Smith apples

Apple sticks (I used natural non toxic twigs)

4 cups granulated sugar

1 cup corn syrup

1 1/2 cups water

Red food coloring

Place the sugar, corn syrup, water, and food coloring into a large saucepan and stir to combine.

Allow the mixture to come to the boil, removing once it reaches 300F- you will need to check this with a candy thermometer. Please be careful as this is very hot!

Press the sticks into the apples and dry each one as much as possible to avoid bubbles in the coating.

Dip each apple into the hot candy syrup, then transfer to a greased rose silicone mold. Allow apples to cool and set.
