Procedure
" Put the sugar, butter, syrup water and vinegar onto a large, heavy based pan. Heat gently for about 5 minutes, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Using a clean pastry brush, brush the inside of the pan with cold water just above the level of the mixture, then bring to the boil. Boil rapidly for 5-10 minutes or until the temperature reaches the soft crack stage or 143°C. Meanwhile push the wooden sticks into the centre of the apples. Place a sheet of baking parchment on a tray. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the bubbles to settle. Dip the apples very carefully into the toffee to coat well. Twirl each around a few seconds to allow the excess toffee to drip off and place on the paper to cool and harden."
