Thank you Linda for the great advice! I can't wait to try this out. I have balls down in the freezer just waiting to turn into apples!

Thank you ladies for the wonderful comments.   To achieve the smoothest look possible you just need to take your time rolling the cakeball.  I use white dipping chocolate (not candy melts) and color it red.  The leaves and stems are gumpaste.

These are so adorable! I'm with Mary Jane, I want to know too how you were able to get them so smooth. Did you use candy melts?

What did you coat the cake balls with and how did you keep them so perfectly smooth? What did you use for the stem and leaf?  Very nice.
