These beautiful little candy apples are super easy to make and are perfect for little helpers. Feel free to flip through the slideshow above for more pics.



Step 1- Lay out some plastic wrap and pour some of your red candies onto the center. It varies how much depending on how big you would like your apple. Test some sizes and see what you like the best.



Step 2- Gather all four corners of the plastic wrap and twist until candies form a tight ball. Make any adjustments to your ball and remember you want the candies to appear shrink wrapped so try to get them as tight as possible.



Step 3- Secure the ball with a piece of tape and cut off any extra wrap. Now put your candies upside down into the ramekin/cupcake liner.



Step 4- Cut a piece of ribbon about 3-4 inches long and 2 inches of pipe cleaner. Now take the 'right' side of the ribbon and bring it around and stack it on top of the other side to form a leaf shape. Cut a small slit in the ribbon for the pipe cleaner then stick the pipe cleaner and attached leaf into the top of the plastic wrap.
