When it arrives

Open it, chill it, slice it.

Apples: keep them in the fridge and slice them into wedges, straight down through the caramel. Caramels: room temperature is fine, individually wrapped, and they disappear faster than you think.

About the stick

Each apple is made fresh, so the stick can loosen a little in transit and toppings can shift. That is normal for a fresh apple and does not change how it tastes.

Sharing it

One jumbo Granny Smith in wedges feeds a table. Nobody has to commit to a whole apple, and everybody gets caramel.
