The petite Lady apples and Seckel pears are just right for making kid-size caramel treats. They're easy to eat, too! If children are helping, they can carefully dip the apples and pears in the caramel and granola. An adult should supervise the fun as hot caramel can burn. I use natural licorice sticks (found in natural foods stores) because they look eerie and they're edible, too. If you can’t find licorice sticks, substitute cinnamon sticks or bamboo skewers.
