Toffee Apples
(1). " Laddie,’ Thames Valley (aged 10), says "My Mother’s recipe is corker." Two cups of sugar, 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of golden syrup. Boil all together until it "snaps" in cold water. Remove pan from the fire and stand in boiling water. Quickly stir in 1 teaspoon of butter, and sufficient red colouring. Insert a skewer in each washed and dried apple. Dip in the toffee, coat well, and dry on greaseproof paper. (2). From Kaiwarra: Boil till crackly 1 cup each of brown and white sugar, 12 cup each of water and vinegar. Remove from heat, dip in the apple (on a skewer), and leave to dry. Wrap in greaseproof paper to prevent from becoming sticky. (3). Toffee Apples: One cup of golden syrup, 1 cup of sugar, and about twelve medium apples. Put the syrup and sugar in a small saucepan over a slow heat, and stir till the sugar is dissolved. Let it boil undisturbed until a few drops poured in cold water become brittle. Dip in the skewered apples, and stand on buttered plates wie the skewers upright till cool.
