Caramel Filled Leaves

1 pound Merckens orange candy wafers
Squeeze bottle (81-6)
Fall Leaf Mix candy mold (1026)

Painter’s palette (83-150)
4 oz. caramel (102-NC30)
12 Lollipop sticks (5000)
 

Instructions
Melt orange candy wafers according to package instructions. Fill squeeze bottle with the melted wafers. Squeeze a small amount of candy wafers into each mold cavity. Use brush from painter’s palette to coat the sides of each mold cavity with melted orange wafers. Chill 10-15 minutes. Heat caramel according to package instructions. Remove mold from refrigerator. While caramel is still warm, spoon a very small amount of caramel into each mold cavity on top of the hardened candy shells. Insert a lollipop stick into each stick cavity of the mold, pressing it into the caramel. Chill 10-15 minutes. Reheat candy wafers in the squeeze bottle if necessary. Squeeze enough candy wafers into each mold cavity to cover the caramel. Tap mold onto a hard surface to allow melted wafers to spread to the ends of each mold cavity. Add additional melted wafers to each mold cavity if necessary. Chill 10-15 minutes.
Makes approximately 30 candy pieces (lollipops and flats)
