Directions:
Remove apple stems and insert a wooden stick into the core of each apple.

Combine sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil at medium heat.

Cover saucepan and continue to boil until a temperature of 290 – 300 degrees is reached (about 15 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, cinnamon and food coloring.
