    These are delicious! But I believe you should re-think the photo. There are so many highly toxic plants and shrubs out there. I'd hate for a young cook to grab a few oleander branches, or something like that, thinking they're just another stick!

    These were delicious. I love the cinnamon in them. My only problem was that I mucked up the dipping of the apple (the candy got too hard before I could finish dipping them all, but that's on me and not the receipe.

    I've been making them for 3-4 years and the only exception is I don't add the cinnamon, but these are the best..

    I did not know how easy it was to make candy apples. My kids loves them. A word of warning, DO NOT DOUBLE DIP them for more flavor or more candy. My 5 year old son could not bite throught the candy to get to the apple.
    Thank you Paula.

    this resipce was really good. i didnt wait until the sugar,corn syrup and water turned brown caramel though....i just waited until it reached 250 degrees, and it was a super light caramel color. it was really easy to do and my boyfriend really liked them, since i made them for him anyway.
    but yeah, this recipe was really good!

    This may be the recipe that my family wanted: a red cinnamon candy apple similar to the ones at the county fair with the firmness and texture of caramel. The ones sold in a nearby store are tasteless except for the nuts (urgh. My family hates the hard candy and unflavored chewy candy apples. My results so far with this recipe is a firm candy coating with excess settling downward. My experiments with my hard candy apple recipe to make a firm candy apple was not as good. Hope this recipe works for my family.
    1. Recipe works well as stated but needs a more descriptive name with words such as chewy candy in it.
    2. Easy to follow directions with lessened chances of messing up. (It reached 250@F with a light golden color. Needs to state to prepare pan and apples prior to starting to cook the candy. Apples need to be washed, wax removed, and dried prior to inserting the stick.
    3. Hint: wrap these up if not used in a few hours. Moisture loves the candy.
    4. Those who require the (brittle hard-crack stage hard candy coating may increase corn syrup to 1 cup and decrease water to 1/2 cup and cook to 285@F without stirring after the sugar is dissolved. Also use 6 drops hard candy flavoring and 15 drops coloring. Warning: crunching into this hard candy coating results in sharp shards.

    You cannot harden syrup into candy at 250 degrees. You need to get up to around 300 for that. I tried this recipe anyways, against my better judgement - what a mess! These apples are so sticky they will definitely pull any fillings you have out of your teeth! The flavor was pretty weak as well. Don't waste your time on this one or any others that call for a low temp. if you want a hard candy coating.
