By using mold, it's easy to create flowers and leaves. But if you don't have mold, you can free cut leaves or shape them with your hands! No need too difficult shape, even rolling a long flat fondant would create something almost like a rose like if you are creative enough!

Preparing Apples

Wash clean apples and pat them to dry

Press lolly sticks/ice cream sticks into apples and place apples on parchment paper

Covering Apples

Melt enough white chocolate in microwave with 30 seconds interval, stir

When needed, stir in shortening/vegetable oil (to make chocolate a little liquidy so it would be easier to handle/coating apples)

Dip apple one at a time and place back on parchment paper

Let stand either room temperature or fridge to harden

Decorating Apples

Stick decorations with a dab of melted chocolate and decorate apple nicely

Cut tulle and ribbon, tie it on the stick

Place name card or thank you note, hot glued to the stick

Your elegant apples are ready :)
