Chocolate Apples Are Most Delicious When Freshly Dipped
By John Cranby
Chocolate apples are quite popular, especially among children
at special events or family occasions.
You can make your own chocolate apples, just buy fresh apples
and dip them in melted chocolate. They are best eaten straight
away. They do not taste as good if eaten the next day.
Once the chocolate apples are either freshly made or bought from
the store, they can be given at social occasions like children’s
parties or at country fairs. Wherever you buy fresh cotton candy
floss, you should be able to buy chocolate apples.
The chocolate tastes so delicious and you get all the minerals
and vitamins of a fresh apple. It has often been said, a chocolate
apple a day, keeps the chocolate doctor away! Tell that to your
children, so they can eat their fresh chocolate apples.
During my childhood, we did not get to have chocolate apples
all the time, but nonetheless we would eat them every year. We
would go to the fair where they would have caramel apples and
chocolate apples.
Chocolate Apples At The Fair
It was great. The air was crisp, there were rides and games,
and each kid got to have one treat. My sister would always have
cotton candy, but I would not waste my treat on such trivialities.
I would always get a chocolate apple. One time I got a caramel
apple instead, but it just did not compare. Nothing tastes like
chocolate apples taste!
We lived in that same town until I was an adult. I remember taking
one of my girlfriends to get chocolate apples at the fair. She
was from a bigger city. The county fair was something totally
new to her.
The only chocolate apples that she ever had growing up were bought
from the store. They were prepackaged, cold, and often stale.
She had not known the joy of freshly dipped chocolate apples.
Chocolate Apples Must Be Fresh
Chocolate apples, you see, must be done in the right way or there
is no point. Unlike normal chocolate candies, chocolate apples
cannot just sit there on the shelf.
You need to start with a big, juicy, gourmet apple. Then you
dip it straight into the chocolate. You give it just enough time
to start to cool, and then you eat it.
If I wait around for even a day, it is no good. The apple starts
to get mealy and mushy, and the chocolate starts to get brittle.
Only freshly dipped chocolate apples will do. If you can’t get
them fresh at the fair, there is no point in getting them at all.
I have had many chocolate fruits my life, but the chocolate apple
is my favorite. Chocolate
covered strawberries can be good, and chocolate cherries can
be divine, but none of them can compare.
It has to be chocolate covered apples or nothing, and you have
to get them in a little town like the one I grew up in.
Once you get chocolate covered apples, give them as a treat to
all the children in your household. They are popular at childrens’
birthday parties.
As the children do not normally eat chocolate covered apples
every day, they would be delighted to be given fresh apples covered
in chocolate. It feeds that sweet tooth.
I always send my children to brush their teeth straight after
eating chocolate covered apples. It is the best defence to keep
their teeth strong.

Did You Know?
What are the kitchen basics I need?
Kitchen basics that every kitchen should have are
pots and pans (in a variety of sizes), measuring cups, measuring spoons,
mixing bowls and an assortment of kitchen gadgets that make life easier.
One of these gadgets is a can opener. Being forced to saw off
the bottom of a can could take a little of the fervor away from
cooking. Also consider keeping whisks, spatulas and tongs as part
of your cooking basics.
Another item basic that is used often is a drainer/strainer.
These can come in the form of bowls or be part of a boiling pan
set. It is used to drain spaghetti water from the pasta or can
be used for anything similar.
