About Food & Home

There is something almost ceremonial about a caramel apple — the firm wooden stick, the crisp orchard fruit, the slow pour of amber coating that sets with a gentle snap. County fairs and harvest festivals have anchored the treat in American fall tradition for generations, filling the air with the warm, buttery smell of melted sugar over a kettle flame. Variations abound: rolled in chopped walnuts, drizzled with chocolate, or pressed into a popcorn ball — each one a little sculpture of the season.
