It is the autumn season, and which means caramel apples! However in fact, this is not simply any caramel apple. That is the type you get on a visit to Disneyland or Walt Disney World. The sort that appears like Mickey Mouse.
The truth is, you may get numerous kinds of caramel apples, together with the Grogu/Child Yoda model. I’ve watched them make these and it is so wonderful!
However Mickey is a traditional and I particularly bear in mind my aunt shopping for a number of on a visit to Disney Springs. One for consuming immediately and some to take house. It is likely to be the one time I’ve eaten one among these!
For those who’ve by no means had one among these, it is caramel apple like most. Apple on a stick and dipped in caramel. However then we get to the enjoyable half. The ears are fabricated from marshmallow, caught to the caramel, after which the entire thing will get dipped in milk chocolate. To complete it off, they dip the underside in melting chocolate, add sweet buttons (or polka dots for Minnie!) after which cowl the melting chocolate with coloured sugar. And that sugar sparkles!
I did not handle a photograph of an precise Mickey caramel apple with my felt decoration model, however I did discover a sipper from the Disney Eats line of merch! I feel I captured the look fairly nicely. And this manner my decoration did not get sticky both. Ha!
However now let’s discuss methods to make this. For all of those Disney snack felt ornaments, I haven’t got a full tutorial, however relatively, a little bit overview of the method. They go collectively just about like my different felt ornaments.
The felt is wool mix from Benzie Design (affiliate hyperlink). I minimize the all of the circles with my Circles and Scallops die, additionally from them, however you need to use the circle templates within the PDF with plain or ornamental scissors if you would like.
I minimize out all of the the items with freezer paper, and embroidered the face and sugar sparkles by the paper earlier than rigorously tearing it away. And sure, these buttons are tiny, however you may completely minimize them out. That is the place the freezer paper actually makes the distinction.
The items are layered and stitched right down to the entrance circle with a tiny whip sew and two strands of embroidery floss.
To assemble the decoration I used operating sew across the edges, then I crammed in with a second spherical of operating sew so it seems the identical on the back and front.
Inform me your favourite Disney Parks snack that you just’d wish to see come to life in felt!
