Old-Fashioned Red Candied Apples
By: Nana Lee
Jun 6, 2006
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.
