How to Draw a Caramel Apple
Draw a caramel apple in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the apple.
Step 1: The apple
In the middle, draw a big round apple as wide as your hand, with a soft dip at the top.
Tip The apple is fatter at the shoulders than the bottom.
Step 2: The stick
From the dip, draw a stick straight up, as tall as a thumb: 2 lines joined across the top.
Step 3: The drippy edge
Start on the left edge, halfway down. Draw a drippy line across to the right edge.
Tip Make the drips different lengths, longest in the middle.
Step 4: Chopped nuts
Draw 6 little lumpy chunks of different sizes on the caramel for chopped nuts, clear of the drippy edge.
Step 5: A shine
On the upper left of the apple, draw a thin slanted oval sliver for a shine.
Step 6: A plate
Under the apple, draw a long flat oval for a plate, with a second oval just inside for the rim.
Step 7: The table
Draw a table line under the plate from well left to well right.
Step 8: Stick, nuts and plate
Go over your lines. Colour the stick and the nuts tan, and the plate sky blue.
Step 9: Red apple
Colour the apple below the drippy edge red.
Step 10: Brown caramel
Colour the caramel brown, going around the nuts and leaving the shine white, and your caramel apple is done!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a caramel apple, drawn by you.
