If the candy had more flavor, it would have gotten a higher rating. I am giving it three stars because they were bright, shiny and beautiful. I am not sure what I should have added to make it taste "right". The candy just did not compliment the apple. It didn't matter what kind of apple - we used Macs and Granny Smith - both apples had plenty of flavor on the inside of the candy. Reading other reviews, we tried different apples too. My family doesn't like cinnamon flavored candies so we skipped the red hots that some reviewers suggested. The candy recipe as written is too BLAND. However, the taste of the candy was lacking. The apples were shiny and hard and were beautiful to look at. The recipe worked well in that it produced enough candy to fully cover 15 apples. I used a small pot and a candy thermometer. I am an experienced cook and thought that I would try it without the kit. I have made candy apples using kits but never before from "scratch". I was hoping that this would be a great candy apple recipe. I love them - they are right up there in my top five favorite foods of all time. Where I live, Candy Apples are $3 an apple at a farm stand. This stuff is boiling for a couple of minutes off the heat! Pour in a metal can! The pan needed a long soak and sponging to melt the candy off in hot water.
#Red candy apple recipe crack#
The spatula cleaned up by flexing it to crack the cool candy off of it. Early in the cooking process this stuff spattered tiny candy droplets everywhere. I made this in a 3 qt non-stick pot and used a silicone spatula. I used bamboo skewers in the BBQ section of my HEB they were perfect and pretty. The only stirring I did was to mix in vanilla and food color near the end. That last stretch from 250 to 300 happened fast. I found that my temperature rose in spurts. Do not stir after you initially blend the ingredients. If your apples are too chewy, you may not have cooked long and hot enough. Before that, it would make hard-ish strings when dropped in ice water, but at 300 it made fast, brittle, glassy swirly strings. I added about a tsp of vanilla extract near the 250 degree mark to flavor, but may try a tablespoon of red hots next time (though they were great this way)! Things that worked: Must have a candy thermometer! It took me an hour to reach 300 degrees on high heat on my ceramic cooktop.
#Red candy apple recipe trial#
I just did a trial run with this recipe, my first time making candy, much leess candied apples. but once you've found your magic stick with it! well good luck!!! This receipe is not your every day and is very tricky but well worth it! so go ahead and charge like the fairs. Recipe is a keeper once you've mastered it. To clean pan pour excess syrup in some old crisco can or something you will throw away.
To remove excess wax peper off apples use a clean new wet rag. after apple is dipped and dry use a cheap sandwich bag and tie off with red or green curling string. use popsicle sticks unstead of the pricy apple sticks. Oh must have apples layed out on wax paper. So don't do like myself and have a bunch of screaming kids at the table. I went into the hospital and had my baby that night with a burned scar on my hand. Also don't kid yourself candy making is dangerous I burned myself trying to save my expensive pan. this receipe can burn in a half of second after hard crack ball stage. Let the candy thermomorter read about 260 than turn heat down to cook rest of the way. Try using this recipe with red hots (a bag) to flavor and color unstead of red die. I made this recipe more than once! Candy making is not forgiving a candy thermomorter a must! if you under do it is sticky if you over do it is rock hard.
