Disney Copycat Caramel Apples

One of the best things about visiting Disney are the delicious treats! I’ve recreated several of my favorites at home, like these Disney caramel apples, chocolate peanut butter sandwich cookies and Mickey Mouse beignets. Yum!

Every time I visit Disneyland, I have to pick up a caramel apple. I love going to the bakery and seeing which new flavors and designs they have each season. They’re so fun and so delicious!

Believe it or not, they’re actually pretty easy to make at home. And today I’m going to show you how. I’ve included 2 versions: Mickey Mouse candy apples and apple pie caramel apples. Both are simple and so cute!

Apple Pie Caramel Apple

This “apple pie apple” is my favorite Disneyland version! It’s coated with caramel, white chocolate, graham cracker crumbs and a cinnamon sugar mixture. Watch a video of Disney parks making an Apple Pie Candy Apple.

  1. Dip your apple in caramel and allow to set. Once set, trim any excess caramel on the bottom with scissors.
  2. Cut about 1/8 of the marshmallow off the bottom. Then stick 2 of them on top of the apple to create the ears. If you don’t want to make the Disney version, leave these off.
  3. Dip the entire apple in white chocolate or almond bark. Or if you’re making without Mickey ears, just dip until you reach the caramel. Let the excess chocolate drizzle off.
  4. Place the caramel in a bowl full of graham cracker crumbs. Allow to set in the bowl a minute and then press the graham crackers onto the sides.
  5. Sprinkle the top half with cinnamon sugar.
  6. Then place on a piece of parchment paper to set.

Mickey Mouse Candy Apples

My kid’s favorite Disney caramel apples are the Mickey mouse apples. They are actually pretty easy to make at home. Just follow these steps below. Watch a video of Disney parks making the Mickey Mouse Candy Apple.

  1. Dip your apple in caramel and allow to set. Once set, trim any excess caramel on the bottom with scissors.
  2. Cut about 1/8 of the marshmallow off the bottom. Then stick 2 of them on top of the apple to create the ears.
  3. Dip the entire apple in semi-sweet chocolate. Allow to set.
  4. Once the chocolate has set, dip about 1-inch of the bottom of the apple in white chocolate.
  5. Then sprinkle the white chocolate with red sprinkles. Allow to set.
  6. Dip 2 yellow jelly beans or chocolate candies into the chocolate and then press into the apple. Tilt on it’s side if you need them to stay put, until they dry.
