Dipped Caramel Apples
Basic
Steps & Ideas
Imagine a creamy, delicious caramel that doesn't stick to your teeth! Stop dreaming and start enjoying Chocoley Caramel, our high milk solid, stand-up caramel, specially formulated for Dipped Apples, Turtles and Caramel Centers.
Ingredients:
- Your favorite Chocoley chocolate flavor
Choose either - Chocoley Caramel
- Chocoley Drizzle & Design Chocolate (optional)
- Apples
- Crushed nuts, chopped raisins, or mini M&M's (optional)
You'll Also Want:
- Double Boiler Insert
- Caramel Apple Sticks
- Chocoley Drizzle & Design Chocolate (optional)
- Heavy Weight Dipping Sheets (optional)
- Cello Bags
TIP:
Depending on the exact size of the apples and how much of the apple you cover, as well as how thick you coat the apples, 1 lb of caramel should make 4-7 apples and 1 lb of chocolate should make 6-8 apples.
Method:
- First wash & dry the apples, making sure to remove any wax and removing the stem.
- Next, insert the caramel apple sticks into the apples.
- Melt the Chocoley Caramel on
low heat until it reaches 170° F. Then dip the apples into
melted caramel.
Ideally, use a double boiler (or a double boiler insert). Do not let the water touch the bottom of the double boiler. Only let the water simmer. Do not allow it to boil or you may burn the caramel.
If you must use a microwave, melt on medium heat for short periods being very careful not to overheat the mixture. - Set on a greased cookie sheet in the fridge to cool (about 15 min).
- Melt or temper your favorite Chocoley chocolate in a double boiler
using instructions that came with your chocolate.

Melting Instructions for Candy Melts
- Once the Caramel has cooled & hardened, you can dip the apples in your chocolate, covering the caramel with as much chocolate as desired. Place chocolate dipped caramel apples on Heavy Weight Dipping Sheet lined tray and refrigerate until chocolate is set. (If rolling in nuts, let chocolate set for a minute or two prior to rolling.)
- After the chocolate is completely set, add even more pizzazz by drizzling the apples with Chocoley Drizzle & Design Chocolate.
- Return to fridge until set, then remove promptly and devour.
