Crispy puff pastry, sweet apples and decadent caramel – sounds insanely delicious, doesn’t it? But the good news is you don’t have to spent hours in the kitchen to create these pretty masterpieces. Perfect caramel and the right technique of folding the puff pastry are the secrets to these fabulous caramel apple roses. And hey, read on to learn all the tips and tricks to create your own perfect roses. Watch the video and fuel up your creativity! Alright, let’s talk about roses today. I mean, these caramel apple roses. I used store bought puff pastry in this recipe. Well, if you’re feeling a bit more adventurous and want to make your own pastry, go for it. But, on the other hand, store bought puff pastry is the “easy version” for these apple roses. Next the apples. Choose sweet ones for this dessert. Slice them as thin as possible. Thin slices cook really quick in the microwave. If you don’t want to use the microwave, cook them on the stovetop. But make sure you don’t overcook them and make mushy apple puree. Remember the slices must remain intact. In order to add a wow factor to these apple roses, I decided to add something that I really love – caramel. Ooey gooey caramel literally adds that next level of decadence to this dessert. But, if you’re thinking whipping up the perfect caramel is impossible, trust me, it’s super simple. Just be careful not to burn the caramel. And your hands, obviously. Again, make this salted caramel sauce for an interesting twist. (Click here to get the recipe). Now all you need to do is cut the puff pastry sheets into wide strips, spread with caramel sauce, arrange apple slices, fold and roll the pastry to create the dream roses. Finally, bake. Make sure the pastry is cooked through before you remove them from the oven. So, what do you think about these caramel apple roses? Pretty, delicious, easy. These certainly tick all the boxes. Without a doubt, these are the perfect roses for your mom this Mother’s Day. A very happy Mother’s Day to all amazing moms out there! Have a lovely weekend!
