Thread: Caramel Apple Tips & Tricks

Tweet

did you use just a basting brush and did you put anything on it first when you used it to get the wax off?

I read this today online..

A tablespoon of lemon juice and a tablespoon of baking soda can be added to a sinkful of water to make a good scrubbing solution. This can remove the wax and any pesticides which might be trapped underneath it."

No special kind of brush just your average little kitchen brush that you would use to help pick gunk off of burnt pans and a little bit of dish soap. Just be sure to rinse good after

Also I remember seeing it advertised a while back that there's something you can get at the store, you soak fruit in it, or spray it on to get of the wax and the peticides, any ideas?

ohhh excellent dippped thnx much.

Since you have to make so many of them perhaps you should consider mini apples Mini Caramel Apples Recipe - and More Great Family Fun Recipe Ideas

^^That's what I was going to suggest. Seems this time of year (at least here in the US) many grocers put bags of apples on sale. Might get a good deal buying in bulk-bagged.

PS Thanks dippedstix for the tip about the scrub. Will try that for sure.
