State Fair Red Candy Apples Recipes
OLD-FASHIONED RED CANDIED APPLES
These are the kind you found at the circus or carnival! Not the newer version covered with cramel. ;) Candy thermometer is needed for this, as well as popsicle sticks. The number of apples needed depends on the size of the apples, probably 4 medium ones. The recipe states that each batch candies approximately 1 dozen medium apples. I'm not sure I trust that. Cook time depends on your altitude where you live, heat of your burner, and pot used. NOTE: See review by Canada Goose for helpful hints! Thanks, CG!

Steps:
- Wash apples, then dry completely. (Note: In order for the sugar syrup to stick to the apples, the apples need to be well chilled before washing, drying and dipping in the syrup.) Insert wooden pop stick into stem end of each apple.
- Cover baking sheet with parchment; spray with cooking spray. Bring sugar and water to full rolling boil in medium saucepan on medium-high heat. Cook 8 to 9 min. or until syrup registers 238ºF on candy thermometer. Remove from heat. Immediately whisk in dry drink mix until blended.
- Dip apples, 1 at a time, into sugar syrup, turning to evenly coat each apple. Hold apple over pan to allow excess syrup to drip off. Place apples, 2 inches apart, on prepared baking sheet. Let stand 10 min. or until firm. Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 2 days before serving.

STATE FAIR RED CANDY APPLES
This receipe was given to me when I was 8 yrs old by our neighbors mom. Every year at the towns Halloween Carnival, she would make hundreds of these to sell at one of the booths. These were my favorite thing to make for my own kids while they were growing up. This receipe has always been part of my childhood!!!

Steps:
- 1. Grease 2 cookie sheets. Wash and dry apples and put popsickle sticks in them and have them ready to be dipped into the hot candy.
- 2. Spray a large pot with cooking spray.Put a candy thermometer on side of pot(do not let it touch bottom). On high temperature, mix all ingrediants, STIRRING CONSTANTLY(this will take awhile).Allow temperature to reach 277 degrees(or soft crack). DO NOT OVERCOOK.You know candy is ready when it forms a ball when a little dropped in a glass of cool water.
- 3. Immediately remove from heat. And start dipping apples in the HOT candy.BE CAREFULL, THE CANDY IS EXTREMELY HOT!!!After dipping apples in candy, swirl apple around to keep candy on apple and let the apple drip for a few seconds and put them on the greased cookie sheets.WORK FAST, as the hot liquid as it cools will get hard.
- 4. When finished dipping all the apples, make sure you put some HOT water in your pot and get the candy out as soon as possable, or you will have a big mess. Also clean all candy drippings, spoons, etc. This candy when dry, dries like glue.
- 5. If you want to cool fast, put in refrigerator for a few minutes. But do not store in refrigerator, because the candy will slide right off the apple. Keep in airtight container when hard or wrap in wax paper.

CARNIVAL CANDY APPLES
These apples are just like the ones you had at a carnival as a kid. The hard candy coating is sweet with a slight cinnamon flavor. Super easy to make, these would be great to have at a kid's party or for Halloween. We loved these with a crisp red apple, but have fun experimenting with different types of apples.

- Corn dogs. Corn dogs are the must-have state fair food. The classic snack takes a hot dog and batters it, and then the whole thing takes a swim in the deep fryer.
- Cotton candy. Cotton candy goes by lots of names, including fairy floss or candy floss. Whatever you call it, it's downright delicious, and it's a state fair staple.
- Soft caramels. Getting any type of candy at the fair is a real treat, but when it comes down to it, the one that outranks them all is soft caramels. These little nuggets of joy are usually made in some sort of copper kettle and then poured on a surface to be cut into small squares or logs and wrapped up for you to buy.
- Funnel cakes. There's a distinct smell of funnel cakes in just about every state fair. The fried snack is literally a thin pancake-like batter streamed through an actual funnel into hot oil.
- Candied apples. There are all types of candied apples that can be found at the fair, from the bright red, candy-dipped apples to caramel and chocolate-covered apples.
- Boiled peanuts. Boiled peanuts are a staple in the South. Even though you can find them at roadside stands along country roads, the best ones always come from the fair where the pot is always boiling and has been seasoned over years and years of use.
- Cheese on a stick. Just like corn dogs, cheese on a stick is fun to eat because it's on a stick, making it an easy portable snack to munch on while you explore the fair.
- Strawberry shortcake. Southern states are really known for over the top desserts, and one that always rises to the occasion at the state fair is strawberry shortcakes.
- Cheese curds. The Wisconsin savory snack has made its way across the country at state fairs. Cheese curds have a lot of different names at fairs, including cheese bites and squeaky cheese.
- Whoopie pie. The Northeast United States are known for their famous whoopie pie dessert, and there's no better place to find these in a huge variety of flavors, sizes, and preparations.

- Insert craft sticks into center of apples. (Note: I used twigs that were washed and dried.) Set apples aside.
- Using a heavy-bottomed saucepan, add sugar, corn syrup, water and food coloring. Place pan over medium-high heat. Cook until mixture reaches 300°-310°F. (Note: Use extreme caution with this mixture as it gets very hot!)
- Working with one apple at a time, tilt the pan to one side and roll apple in sugar syrup. Shake apple slightly so excess syrup drips off. Place apple on parchment-lined sheet pan until hard (~10-15 minutes).
