"Soon after Jeff and I were engaged, we dreamed up the idea of giving our guests caramel apples as favors. Our wedding was an autumn theme and that sounded like the perfect—and most delicious—fall favor. I mentioned something to my mom and with a little research she found Applelicious. Paul personally invited her to the shop to show her how the apples are made and he even gave her a few samples to bring to us to taste. Let me just say, the word "delicious" doesn't do these babies justice. They're equal parts rich and crisp, sugary and tart, beautiful and decedent. Paul was fabulous to work with and he was even willing to custom design a white chocolate covered version drizzled with milk chocolate for us.
The apples impressed us so much that we decided to forgo escort cards and instead tie place tags, which we designed ourselves, around the cellophane wrapped apples. The reception venue displayed all the apples on tables surrounding the wedding cake and guests Oo'd and Ah'd their way through. During the wedding, as Jeff and I visited with each table, everyone—literally everyone—had something to say about the apples: how creative the idea was, how happy they were to have a late night snack, how beautiful they are, how delicious they are (a few guests didn't wait to dig right in!). Weeks after the wedding, our guests are STILL talking about the apples. They truly added a beautiful, unique and fabulously fall accent to our wedding and we couldn't be more pleased. I would highly recommend Applelicious to absolutely anyone." -Joanna D.
"The chocolate-dipped apples were a "huge hit" at my daughter's wedding. The guests were impressed by their unique versatility, doubling as aesthetically-pleasing holders for escort cards and delectably-gratifying favors for take home. During the cocktail hour, grown men were seen clutching their apples in fear of losing them. Thank you for providing such an extraordinary creation--the apples were fresh (not like the stale ones in stores) and the chocolate was the best!" -Gloria J.
"The Applelicious
gourmet chocolate covered apples were a huge success at our daughter’s
October wedding. The guests loved them and continue to rave about the apples
every time the wedding was discussed. They were the perfect accent to the table
settings for our fall theme. They were delicious as well as beautiful. The apple
was fresh and crisp and the chocolate, caramel combination can only be described
as heavenly. I am happily recommending you to all my friends and will be ordering
a few more soon to give as gifts to my friends for the holidays! P.S. Your buckeyes
are also a winner. What a treat! Thank you!" -Joanne
"Thanks again for
everything. Paul is from the Pittsburgh area and supplied us with delicious
apples for our wedding. If anyone is interested in apples for wedding favors
or when you have functions down the road and are looking for tasty edible gifts
Paul may be able to help you. I have been ordering apples from him for years
and I have not come across any better...not even close. Take care and thanks
again!" -Jason
“I first contacted
you last year about providing our company with apples for our clients as a holiday
gift (since our firm name is “Apple”). It worked out great! Your
pricing was good, the apples are beautiful AND yummy, (our clients loved them!)
and the whole process went so much more smoothly than previous years. I had
one year with a previous vendor, and my experience with you was SO much better!
You made it so easy! Thanks for making me look good!” -Debbie W.
"We had a fall-themed
wedding so we wanted favors that went with the season. We decided to give chocolate
apples, but most places only made them weeks in advance and charged outrageous
prices. Then we heard of Applelicious! After getting guidance from Paul, we
decided to give his chocolate covered pretzels to guests and his apples to our
bridal party (for that extra-special touch). What a huge hit! Two years later
we still receive compliments on them! The apples left such a lasting impression
of our wedding that we decided to order them every year for our anniversary.
Thanks for the great memories, Paul!" - Jason and Valerie Lash
"Three years ago while
attending the Yankee Peddler in Canal Fulton, Ohio I was fortunate enough to
come across the "Apple's 4 You" booth.
Of course, we could not pass by without a sample and then waited my turn to
talk with the gentleman working the booth (who turned out to be the owner, Paul
himself). I was so impressed with the fresh crisp taste of the apples as well
as the delicious toppings that I not only purchased several but also immediately
scheduled a fundraiser for our schools wrestling program. As it turned out,
I was not the only one impressed with the product, I don't remember the exact
number but we sold a ton of apples and made a nice profit for our program as
well as passing along information to Heather's Studio and Trevor Phillips who
also had very successful fund raisers. All you have to do is try one and you
will know why they sell. They make excellent gifts as well. Thanks Applelicious"
-Marybeth Hall, Tuslaw Wrestling and of course all the Hall boys!
"I purchased your
apples off of a friend of a friend for a fundraiser. They are by far the best
gourmet apples ever. They are less expensive than those from other places, especially
the ones I saw at local department stores in the area. Originally, I ordered
a couple just to help the little girls out and now I am hooked. I keep asking
when they are having another fundraiser. Thankfully, they are selling again
for Easter; so I just put in another order for some of your products. I was
amazed at how fresh the apples were, and I didn't even eat them as soon as I
got them. Anyway, your products are fabulous and I think it is very admirable
that you offer your products at a cheaper price for the fundraiser." -Christy
"I have been purchasing
the gourmet apples from Applelicious for the past several years. Everyone to
whom I have given them as gifts, has then purchased them to give as gifts to
others. We love the quality of the apples and the coatings. They stay fresh
for weeks and they are large enough that there is plenty for 6 or more people.
We are looking forward to trying some of the other 'treats' that are now available."
-Jack
"My comments on the
Applelicious Apples are 1) outstanding 2) extremely fresh and 3) leader of all
the others! I order Applelicious Apples for every holiday occasion and have
always been more than satisfied. They arrive beautifully decorated and wrapped
and remain fresh (in cool conditions) for several weeks. I have always received
high mark comments from anyone who has received these apples as a gift. My vote:
Applelicious are No.1!" -Mrs. D. J. Sheridan
"Since my husband
owns his own business,we buy these great apples as corporate gifts and everyone
raves about them! The presentation is first-class and I know everyone assumes
I paid far more than the reasonable price that is charged. Outstanding and Delicious!"
-Beth Yurisic
"Ok, you've seen, tasted and loved the apples.....BUT have you seen, tasted & fell in love with the pretzels yet? Not only are they beautiful to look at, but WOW are they tasty! Paul and his generosity came to my rescue and donated graciously over 25 pretzels to a local middle school that my professional organization ..."adopted" for Valentine's day. I cannot wait to give them out to the kids this week....they are going to flip! I just wanted to say thanks again Paul (and any others that helped out), you are going to make several middle school kids feel really special this Valentine's Day. And I will also say that when a very well known professional baseball team failed to come through, Applelicious stepped right up and knocked the ball out of the park for me! Thank you & keep on making our lives a little sweeter one treat at a time! -Lisa
"I just had to let you know that the Bride and Groom Oreo cookies were a huge success at Stefanie’s wedding on Saturday. The dessert bar was fabulous, but your cookies were the first of the desserts to be depleted. I didn’t even get one but the country club had made a dessert box for the bride and groom so they took theirs with them.
Thank you for working with me on their wedding reception. I love your product, your concern for detail, and your Christian attitude."
-Linda S.
"I had ordered the chocolate dipped bride and groom Oreos for all my guests at my wedding. Everyone absolutely loved them. Not only were they soooo cute, but were soooo delicious. Many of the guests were trying to find more to take home with them. Paul, the owner, was a pleasure to work with. I would suggest any of his Applelicious treats to any future bride and groom!!"
