This is Candy Apple TV, and I’m your host Diy Queen Diva.
With this candy apple recipe I used 4-3-1 candy apple recipe and will be referring to this recipe from now on:
4 cups sugar
3 cups water
1 cup light corn syrup
Flavor
I've been doing this recipe for a minute now. I decided to share this because I figured you might want to try a candy apple recipe with the perfect crisp and crunch. This recipe holds up very well. Again, I've been doing this recipe for a minute now. To be honest, half the time I don't even measure. I figured this recipe out on a mistake because my daughter had misplaced my measuring cups one day and I actually loved it!....LOL.
If you want the perfect candy apple with the perfect crunch and crisp you must use the 431 candy apple recipe. Also make sure you take the time to scrape the bottom of your candy apples on the side of your pot also. Doing this will make you have the perfect candy apples with this perfect candy apple recipe. If you skip this step, you will have all the extra candy on the bottom of your candy apples. If you are making your candy apples for a customer, I'm sure you'd like your apples to look perfect.
Here is my 6-4-1 Candy Apple tutorial if you're looking to cover 8-24 apples with the perfect crunch and non-thick apples. Customers love it, when their candy apples are not too thick:

Nice..I would have never thought to use brown to make pink darker
Yes, just a little bit. I love experimenting with the colors for my candy apples.
Love it 🤩
Thank you! Did you try it?
@@DIYQUEENDIVA will be trying they looked so professional thanks for sharing
Ok, and thank you.
Love your videos. New to your channel...is there a reason you use different methods of mixtures?
Hi, Kisha!
Thank you so much for subscribing to my channel!! To answer your question, it just depends on how many apples I need to get dipped. If I only need a few apples dipped I use the 311. When I have to get a lot of apples dipped I use this one-->> ruclips.net/video/7k7tuxnsT0M/видео.html. In this 4-3-1 tutorial this is a perfect crunch. The candy apples are not too thick using this recipe.
Hello I enjoy your videos. What do you do if you have bubbles in the apples
Natalie you didn't clean the wax off your apples good if you have bubbles all over. My video here should help you: ruclips.net/video/L5YGfgi56Pg/видео.html
Hello. Thank you for your teachings! Would you mind explaining the difference between the 431 and 411 method? I just watched your other video. Thanks a bunch in advance for answering.
Hello, and thank you so much! Sure I don't mind explaining the difference. 431 is 4 cups of sugar, 3 cups of water, and 1 cup of light corn syrup while 411 uses only 1 cup of water.
431 allows me to use a little more water which will give my candy apples the perfect crunch, and perfect crisp. I can also get more apples dipped without my candy getting so thick to prevent me from dipping my candy apples smoothly.
In contrast, in my opinion 411 is too thick, the candy apple mixture gets too thick in which I can only get a few candy apples dipped. It doesn't let me dip my candy apples smoothly. As a beginner and even myself when I used 411 candy apple recipe, I only got frustrated because I had too many issues with it. This is why I created 4-3-1 candy apple recipe for those who are going through the same thing. Let me know if I explained this good for you.

@@DIYQUEENDIVA thank you so much. I will be giving it a try and I will let you know how they turn out. I haven’t had a candied apple since I was a little girl. 😊
You will love these!
These look amazing! How far in advance can you make them?
I usually make mine the same day of the event. If you make them in advance I would only do one day in advance, but make sure your house is very cool or place them in the refrigerator if your house is not cool.
AWESOME! what kind of paper do you use to sit dipped on? That is not regular parchment paper.
Lollllll! A tasteofheaven, it's a silicone mat. You can purchase it here so you don't have to keep buying parchment paper.

Those apples are beautiful. I’ll use this method soon! How many medium apples do you think I can dip with this method?
Thank you! You should be able to get 7 medium apples with no problem. If you need to get 8-24 candy apples dipped, go to this tutorial in which I show how to make 8-24 candy apples in one batch: ruclips.net/video/7k7tuxnsT0M/видео.html I hope this helps you.
Thank you for responding and for all of your content! Be blessed Queen!
@@mrslynette you're welcome. And thank you so much!
As a baker I use two different measuring cups for wet & dry. So candy apples, are you supposed to the same measuring cup?
Hello, Nicole. I just use the same regular measuring cups for both water and sugar. I would love to see some of your beautiful cakes!
Thank you for sharing! How many apples are you able to get with that recipe?
You should be able to get 7 medium apples with no problem. If you need to get 8-24 candy apples dipped, go to this tutorial in which I show how to make 8-24 candy apples in one batch: ruclips.net/video/7k7tuxnsT0M/видео.html I hope this helps you.
With the 431 recipe, can I use the corn syrup powder that is mentioned for your 641 recipe? Ty
Yes, of course you can. It’s corn syrup just in powdered form.💕
I have seen many videos but yours are the best. Do you add your flavor and color in the beginning or when the temp reaches 280 degrees? Which is best?
Great question. I add everything at the beginning. When I'm trying to achieve a particular color, I usually add everything at the beginning. Plus I always forget to add the flavor if I don't do it at the beginning...lol. It just comes down to your preference if you want to add everything at the beginning or not. I hope this helps you.
THANK YOU!! I cant wait to start my first batch.
You’re so welcome. Come back and let me know how everything turned out.
What do you do with left over candy I lay it on parchment paper and crack it up but I don't know what to do with it besides just eat pieces of it
Millie, that's a good question. Some people re-use it to make candy apples again if it's a lot leftover. Some people use it to make lollipops. I usually just disregard mine, but I need to start doing something else like making lollipops.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA Thank you
@@MilagrosMendez you're welcome.
Thank you for the video! How does this recipe hold up in the heat since your using more water?? Stickiness, holes. I live on an island an always have a problem with my apples getting sticky and starting to melt before I can get them to the cllient🙄.
Hi, K. Niang. They hold up just like the regular candy apple recipes. I have a subscriber in Florida that states the same thing. She stated she places her candy apples in the refrigerator due to the heat and humidity. But as soon as she takes them out, she stated the candy apples melt even when she used Hi-Sweet to prevent stickiness and melting issues.
I suggested that she gets a dehumidifier to place in the kitchen to pull the humidity out her house. I will ask her if that helped and let you know. Because there's nothing else you can really do because you live where the humidity is very high. I don't think she has this issue during the fall and winter. Only Spring and Summer.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA Hey sister thank you so much for the response. Ugggggh it's so sad and frustrating I actually haven't tried the Hi sweet, I kinda feel like it won't make a difference I'm actually in Hawaii and have had great response to selling them. So sad. Thanks again tho Sister, Stay Blessed.
Try the Hi-Sweet and a dehumidifier before giving up. And it's almost Fall so hopefully the humidity isn't as bad during Fall and Winter in Hawaii.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA Blessings sister I will. I really don't wanna give up they have been will receives, I'll try your advice. Tha KS again, Bless.
*well received
Your shipping candy apple video brought me here after I heard the crunch 😂
LOLLLLLLLLLL! I'm glad you're here. If you have any questions make sure you leave them down below.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA Lol ABSOLUTELY!
@@shalontehernandez6752 I'm glad you're here and I hope you enjoy my channel.
I love this recipe but is there a smaller batch because I want to test some colors
Yes, use 3-2-1. 3 cups of sugar, 2 cups of water, and 1 cup of light corn syrup.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA thanks so much
You’re so welcome.💕
Why do you add the vanilla? Can you substitute with another flavor like strawberry?
Butter Vanilla is my preference. And of course you can add whatever flavor you prefer. It just comes down to your preference or what your customers want.
Hi what kind of chocolate did you use
This is not chocolate. This is homemade candy, however GHIRARDELLI is my favorite chocolate to use on candy apples and treats.
Hi love ! If I wanted to transport my apples 5 hours in a cooler until I get to my destination do you think they will be ok ?
They will be okay if you just run your AC until you get to your destination, but if you put them in a cooler how will you prevent them from getting wet and sticky with the ice inside the cooler? How are you packaging them before you put them in the cooler?
I was going to use the ice packs not actual ice, and put them in a Styrofoam cooler❤ good idea or should I try something else ? Lol thanks so much for replying ! 😘😘
Ok, it's a good idea if you can get get a Styrofoam box and put the apples inside that and then place that box inside the cooler with the ice packs on the outside of this box but inside the cooler if that makes sense. Let me know if you understand what I'm talking about. If not, I will rephrase this.
Yes maam I understand fully thank you so much ❤️
Where can I get the stix
You can either make your bling sticks like in my candy apple tutorial here: ruclips.net/video/ZGVRT2y50sw/видео.html Or you can purchase them in my Amazon bake shop here: www.Amazon.com/shop/diyqueendiva
How far in advance can these be made? Is 2 days ok?
Kasidy I always make mine the day of the event. But if I was pushed for time I wouldn't go no further than a day. How do you plan on storing them for 2 days?
What do you do to get all the apples to get covered before the candy harden
That's a greatttttttt question. Your candy apple mixture is too thick from the beginning. I had that problem too when I first started making candy apples. I no longer have that problem after I started making candy apples using 6-4-1 which means 6 cups of sugar, 4 cups of water, and 1 cup of corn syrup for up to 8-24 small apples. I used 4-3-1 which is 4 cups of sugar, 3 cups of water, and 1 cup of corn syrup for up to 7-8 apples. Try one of these recipes and come back and let me know how it worked out for you. My candy apple tutorials right here will help you: ruclips.net/video/7k7tuxnsT0M/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/9Jegkbg7lKw/видео.html
So I’m doing my first attempt and this candy been sitting at 220 for 15 minutes. Should I turn the heat up?
No, you don't want to burn your candy you must have patience it will eventually reach 300 degrees.
During this time you can work on your bows or something else so you're not just standing over the stove....lol. Are you the nice lady that kept burning her candy after turning it up several times?
@@DIYQUEENDIVA lol no that was my first attempt ever. I didn’t turn up the heat and it did eventually get to 300 but it was kinda thick! I was stirring it on and off am I not supposed to do that?
@@BeeRavie NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! You are NOT supposed to stir the candy. Just let it cook because it's never thick while cooking...lol. The extra water absolutely thins it out. When is the next time you are going to do apples? I will have to walk you through it.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA this Saturday I’m doing some for a party
@@BeeRavie schedule with me on Instagram.
I made my first batch using this recipe! But......It took my thermometer 1hour and 15 min to reach 300 degrees. It seemed like it stayed at 200 too long. Once it did, it was thickening so fast. I got to apple number 5 and I had to hurry up! What did I do wrong. My electric stove was between med and 6. Help I wanna try again. Flavor and color was good at least.
You did good considering your very first try. My first try I couldn't even get the candy to stick to the apples. My candy was sliding all down the apples.
This recipe takes longer because more water is added so the candy apples are not too thick. It will stay between 200-240 for a minute before the temperature rises with any candy recipe. It shouldn't have been thickening so fast. I recommend putting your candy apple mixture on anywhere between 4-5.
Did you use regular granulated sugar? It really sounds like you may have put too much gel food coloring or flavoring in it. Make sure you have a teaspoon and try not to put no more than a teaspoon of gel food coloring and flavoring in it until you get the hang of it, because both can definitely make your candy apple mixture thick. I hope this helps you. I believe in you! You got this!
Ok..my second attempt, same thing. This time it took the mixture 1 hour and 30 min to reach 300 degrees. It rose to 200 in 30 min but stayed at 200 seemed like forever. Help! I had a 3 quart stainless steel pot, my stove is the glass top electric stove, i only used 1 tsp of flavor a d 3 dropz of the white.
Turn down your stove. It sounds like you may need a one on one tutorial. Have patience because your candy will reach 300 degrees. Put your stove on 4.
Also your 3 drops of white might be too heavy. I’m heavy handed as well. Try 1 no more than 2 drops as well. Wait to add your flavoring and color at the end and see if that’ll get it. Too much flavoring and gel food coloring will make your candy apple mixture thick as well.
Has anyone ever used this 4-3-1 candy recipe for other Candied fruit such as grapes..? Just wondering because I use the 4-1-1 method and it's thick so looking for thinner and cane across your video
Yes, all the time.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA thank you!
You're so welcome!
Yu Just ask my dame question for the same reason
😂
Can you bite into these apples using the 4-3-1?
Hi, J Gee. You sure can. The reason why I started adding more water to thin the candy mixture out, was because my customers didn't want thick candy apples. So the only way I could figure out how to thin the candy was to add more water.
Hello 🤩
Hello!😊 How are you doing today?
Why does my mixture not thicken?
Your candy apples will get hard. Eventually, it will but this recipe is added with 3 cups of water to thin down the thickness of candy apples and this also allows you to dip all of your apples before the candy thickens up on you to finish.
How much do you charge for these?
I always tell people to make sure you get your money back that you put in, and then charge your fee and/or the time you spent making custom treats by the hour. For plain apples with wooden stick $5 per apple and anything decorated starts at $8+ per apple.
I want to try 4-2-1 instead of 4-1-1 just to see how many apples I can get out of batch.
Camelia, this recipe is to thin out the candy so it won't be too thick. Now if you need 8-24 candy apples dipped in one batch, then try this recipe in my video tutorial, here: ruclips.net/video/7k7tuxnsT0M/видео.html I hope this helps you.
Can you give me a no thick for grapes my candy was to thick and I did 2 sugar
1/2 water and 1/2syrup
Many of my subscribers are choosing this candy apple recipe 4-3-1 for candied grapes. They are saying they are able to get all of their grapes dipped and they have the perfect crunch. They are not thick. I hope this helps you.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA thanks soo much
@@DIYQUEENDIVA what about a smaller batch
Do 3-2-1 which is 3 cups of sugar, 2 cups of water and 1 cup of light corn syrup.
@@DIYQUEENDIVA yes thanks I’m going to try that and another thing will it help the mixture from seizing up so fast
I thought u did 6-4-1?
Hello, Angella Thames. Yes I absolutely, use the 6-4-1. The 6-4-1 candy apple recipe will get up to 24 candy apples. When I don't have a big batch to dip I will use the 4-3-1. So when you have only 6 apples to dip, this is the go to recipe if you don't want your candy apples too thick. I wanted to share this when you have a few candy apples to dip so you don't have so much candy remaining or leftover. I hope this helps.
