Add lollypop sticks to the apples and set to one side. Melt the soft caramels with a splash of water over a low heat, be careful caramel can get very hot! When the caramel is all soft and runny, let it cool a little before dipping in the apples to coat, then gently roll through a plate of topping of choice.
