The Caramel Apple Quest

What does a girl do on a Friday night?  R & D a fall cupcake that's what...  I was in the process of creating a cupcake that is reminiscent of a caramel apple, when I had a great idea to combine both flavors into one great tasting syrup!  Pure genius I tell you....  You know one of those epiphanic moments when you just know you came across a good thing?  Well this is it.  Start by reducing apple juice until syrupy, then combine 1/4 apple reduction to 3/4 homemade caramel sauce and voila!  Everything you love about a caramel apple in liquid form!  The uses are endless…  Pie, cupcakes, ice cream, oh my!
