Put a skewer through each balls.  When the caramel is poured into another pan a cooled just slightly, dip each ball in caramel and pull out. The caramel will coat the ball and form a drooling tail; allow excess sugar to fall off and u'll get candied apples. Pull them out of the skewer and allow to cool on a plate with tail side up.
