Kitchen Tips: We recommend using LOW for melting toffees. If you choose to use HIGH, stir frequently to avoid burning. Be sure to wash apples thoroughly to remove any wax. If caramel mixture becomes too thick, stir in additional water. Work quickly to add decorations while toffee is still sticky. Refrigerate immediately to allow toffee to set.
