Remove each apple's stem. Simply hold the apple by the stem, either twist the apple around until the stem comes off, don't twist and give the stem a hard pull, or slice out the stem with a craft knife.
Create the candle holder shape in the top center of the apple. Place the tealight on top of the apple and trace around the bottom with a pen or pencil.
Cut out the traced hole using a craft knife. Plunge the craft knife into the apple along the traced line, cutting a round hole. Cut about 1" down (2.54 cm) to create a hole deep enough to hold the candle.
Cut two “X” shapes in the center of the circle with the craft knife. Cutting the X shapes will make it easier to remove the center of the apple.
Scoop out center area with a spoon. The pre-cut X shapes should lift easily. Then continue to hollow out the apple with your spoon. Scrape around the sides of the pre-cut hole to create a smooth center and base to hold your tealight.Make Apple Votive Candles Step 9Bullet1.jpg
