Homemade Caramel Apples

Last Monday a large chunk of my day was dedicated to trying to make the fancy store variety caramel apples.  It took a lot of time and effort to finally create 8 amazing looking treats!  I gave away 4 of them and kept the rest for my family.


They were yummy, but the store bought ones still won out on the taste test.  They must do something to the caramel to make it so much softer?  I am going to try one more time on Halloween and then probably throw in the towel until next year and move on to more Thanksgiving-ish endeavors.

note to self: buy the caramel wraps that are in the produce section. They are MUCH easier to work with ,faster and stay soft. Stephanie introduced me to them a few years back & I haven't looked back since!

Hey! I just had to tell you that I did use the wraps for the next batch and they were SO MUCH BETTER! :)
