Instructions

Wash the apples in a solution of 1 cup of white vinegar and a half gallon of water to remove any wax. Dry them thoroughly.
Remove the stems from each apple and insert a lollipop stick into the top, pushing about 3/4 of the way down.
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and arrange the apples on top.

Notes

Ensure apples are completely dry before dipping to help the caramel adhere better.
Experiment with various toppings for personalization and extra flavor.
Store leftover apples in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
