Summarize the following:
If your apples came waxed, the caramel will not stick. In this case, you'll want to wash them using water and baking soda. Once the caramel hardens, you can serve the apples. Some people like to leave the apples on the counter for about 15 minutes so they won't be as cold. If you'd like extra-gourmet apples, drizzle some melted chocolate over the top of each apple.

Summary:
Wash the apples and pull the stems off. Refrigerate the apples for 1 to 2 hours. Finished.
