Fruit Candy ApplesFresh fruit candy apples are made with hawthorn as the main ingredient, skewered and coated with boiled syrup to form a transparent, crispy shell upon cooling. Other fruits like strawberries, grapes, or kiwis can also be used instead of hawthorn using the same method.

Glutinous Rice Candy ApplesGlutinous rice candied hawthorn is made by threading hawthorns onto bamboo skewers, coating them with glutinous rice flour, deep-frying until golden and crispy, then drizzling with boiled maltose syrup to form a transparent candy shell.
