Our recipe for Sanderson Sisters Caramel Apples is a Paid Promotion for Walt Disney Studios’ Hocus Pocus.



Halloween is our favorite time of the year! Usually, during this time of year, we focus on scarier films. However, we were so excited for the 25th Anniversary of Hocus Pocus that we knew we had to do a recipe for it! We’ve created a fun recipe inspired by the infamous sisters themselves, Sanderson Sisters Caramel Apples!

In Hocus Pocus, “the Sanderson sisters are in for a devil of a time when their restless spirits are accidentally conjured up on Halloween night, in 1993 Salem, Massachusetts. Banished 300 years ago for practicing their sorcery, this trio of triple-threat demons vowed to one day reappear—and now they’re back—weaving an outrageous web of comedy and chaos. However, to guarantee their immortality, the things they need are the very things that could bring them down: Max Dennison (Omri Katz), his little sister Dani (Thora Birch), and the Allison (Vinessa Shaw), three kids with the power to make or break the witches’ spell.”

Celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the film’s release, Walt Disney Studios has re-released the Blu-ray with some new bonus features! Here they are:

The inspiration for the Sanderson Sisters Caramel Apples came from a couple of places. First and perhaps most obvious, is the color of the Sanderson Sisters’ dresses. We also added bugs to Sarah’s since she eats them throughout the film. Mary’s has chocolate and nuts similar to the candy bars she tries. The 2nd and less obvious inspiration, is the fact that caramel apples were served at Allison’s Halloween Party. In fact, there are a ton of delicious treats in that scene! Can you spot them all?
