My experience was they didn't arrive as stated when we planned to take them to a family gathering. Was so disappointed. Q didn't do anything about it.

I treat myself to a Mrs Prindables when I go to the studio- they've been delish each time!! I'm wary about buying food via delivery, you never know what weather conditions the package traveled through, how long it sat here or there, etc to get to your home..

I got one of these from a neighbor once as a hostess gift - they are good for that it would seem - but when we cut it open it was moldy inside. UGH. Never again.

The only time I would pay what Prindables cost, is when I go to Savannah and visit River St. where River Street Sweets is. They have great, fresh apples because of the turnover. The Prindables ones, I'm skeptic about buying food like that. I also like the fun of doing it with the kids and keeping them busy and out of the kitchen during the holidays!

You go to the QVC studio? Do you work there?

They probably are good there because they want people to see the fresh products on the air. Not the stale hard ones that have been laying around to mail out.

Mrs. Prindable's took a good idea - the candy apple - too far. If I want candy, I'll buy candy. The Prindables are monstrosities. It doesn't surprise me they're too hard (or too soft, depending on the season) and I imagine they could do some damage to your teeth. I'm sorry Lori Shore decided to promote this vendor.

We have ordered these apples at the holidays many times and had good luck with freshness. I stopped ordering when all they offered was the small apples.Last night Lisa had s set of the large apples QVC used to sell, so I decided to buy them. The large apples are granny smith just like the old days.

I only buy the ones with the Pink Lady apples. Always been good. If they aren't, just call QVC and they will refund your money, no questions, and no need to send things back.

Buy great apples, cut them up into slices, sprinkle with lemon juice to keep them from browning, and chill. Melt some caramels in a small crock pot sprayed with cooking spray and melt some chocolate chips. Get your sprinklings together: mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, sprinkles, peanut butter chips, etc......Then when the family arrives, set out your ingredients and they can custom make their apple dippers. I also do a bowl of peanut butter for those that like that as a base covering. This is cheaper, fresher, and custom, plus fun for the kids. You can also get some pretzel sticks to do. You can do it earlier in the afternoon and set out on wax paper and chill/put in freezer for a bit, and serve afterwards. Kids really do like this.

I have a couple of the small crock pots I can use for hot dips (like crab and buffalo chicken). I like the idea of presenting some sort of healthy alternative to dessert. I like the whipped peanut butter myself ... Thanks for taking the time to post.

I heard or read the Pink Lady apples where best - somewhere. We started ordering from the Q at least 8 years ago - most likely even longer - and had very good results. The last batch I ordered the apples where too small and more candy than apple so I stopped. I gave most of these apples out - and worried I would get a bad batch again so I stopped.
