Ingredients
Granny Smith apples
4 (Rinsed and stems removed; wooden sticks inserted.)
Lemon
1 (Rolled and juiced.)
Fructose
18 ounces (Measured and ready to be melted.)
Blue liquid food coloring
To taste (For adding color to candy mixture.)
Black liquid food coloring
To taste (For adding depth to candy mixture.)
Instructions
1
Begin by summoning a dimly lit ambiance in your secret cooking space, reminiscent of an ancient potion laboratory.
2
Thoroughly rinse the Granny Smith apples under cold water and remove the stems with care. Insert sturdy wooden sticks into the centers of the apples, ensuring they are plunged deep enough to be well secured.
3
Prepare the lemon by rolling it under your palm on a countertop to release its juices. Cut the lemon in half and extract the juice into a small bowl, discarding any seeds.
4
In a heavy-bottomed cauldron, combine the fructose and the freshly squeezed lemon juice. Heat the mixture over a medium flame until it reaches a rolling boil, stirring occasionally. Watch the transformation as the candy melts to a golden color, being careful not to let it turn too dark.
5
Once the desired color is achieved, add four drops of blue liquid food coloring for every drop of black food coloring, as per the advice of your mystical Mirror. Stir the mixture well until the colors blend seamlessly.
6
Remove the cauldron from the heat and allow the candy mixture to cool slightly for a few moments; you want it hot enough to coat the apples but not so hot that it can't be handled.
7
Carefully dip each apple into the enchanting candy mixture, ensuring they are coated completely with the shimmering caramel, reminiscent of your hidden desires.
8
Place the coated apples upright on a plate lined with parchment paper, like a display of enchanted treasures. Allow them to cool completely and their sugary coating to harden, until they are as solid as the resolve of your intent.
