OTHER GOURMET DIPPED TREATS
Fresh and dried fruits, pretzels in all shapes and sizes, cake cubes, marshmallows,
and whole nuts are great dipping foods for special treats and gifts. Use the
suggested apple toppings for additional toppings to be applied immediately after
dipping.
Dipping fork(s) are included with the Gourmet Treat Dipper. Use this for small food
items and pretzel twists. Place a whole berry or nut(s) in the dipping fork’s “basket”
and slowly immerse in the melted candy. Let the excess candy drip back into the
melting crock. Place the dipped item on a waxed paper lined cookie sheet. For
pretzel twists, hook the top loops of the pretzel over the tines of the fork. Lower the
pretzel into the melted candy to the desired depth; lift it out slowly, allowing the
excess candy to drip back into the melting crock. Other foods can be hand dipped
by holding the top and only dipping a portion of the item.
SUGGESTED DIPPING FOODS

Fresh apple, pear, nectarine and kiwi slices.

chocolate), and pineapple.
Pretzels - Mini twists, twists and rods.
