I now have too many things going on in my life.to do it..but back when I had more time...they only let amatures enter. ..oh well..I will applaud u and others that enter...and win. 2nd place is awesome. I love pumpkin recipes..as soon as pumpkins are ripe, I'm making Cin Rafter's crock pot pumpkin butter..its delicious!

I thought about it back inthe 70s...but found out I couldn't enter bcuz by then I was considered a professional baker.

I entered my pumpkin bread. First time I ever did a fair. I was sick so it wasn't my best, only got 2nd place but I was happy to get that! Have you ever entered the fair? Some people make some money doing it. I was surprised to get a check in the mail-$15.00. But there are much higher $$$ amount to be won.

I make the caramel and just pour it over the pecan halves in turtle shape on a silpat mat(4 legs and 1 head)when set, I dip in chocolate.

I made 3 batches last Christmas...2 for turtles and 1 for adding nuts and put in a pan.when set,cut in squares and wrap in wax paper.

Do you make it as her picture=candy? Are your turtles posted? That would be fun to make at Christmas. I went shopping today for Halloween decorations. Had so much fun...

I use Wendys Pecan Nut Caramels

I make it with 1 cup each white & brown sugar and 1/2 tsp salt added. For sauce, I think u would just undercook it a little.

This is homemade caramel sauce. I agree, poring sauce out of a bottle is a crime, especially caramel sauce! Do you think you could send me your caramel sauce recipe to my PO Box or post yours? I'm on my out have a great day! :) D2 LOL

Dee, thanx for sharing ur treasured family recipe..I love cheesecake..any kind, and have made many kinds..but never a caramel apple one.I will have to try this sometime this fall. The only thing I will do differently is make homemade caramel instead of using kraft. I started making it last Christmas, and its so good and easy, I will never buy them again. Wendy Rushe has awesome recipes for caramel.

Joanne I do hope you remember to make this, you will be happy you did. You can make ahead so the flavors marry together and you have more time to do other things Thanksgiving. The pan I used was a 9". Thank you for you compliments. :)

Kimi, I started decorating September 1st. I love Fall also! Living in California is the same as Florida.
