Take a piece of bread and cut it round and place it at the base of the basket.
Now spread the chopped nuts in the basket.
Then arrange the apple roses over the nuts across the basket. But reserve one rose for later use.
Leave the center space empty.
Now warm the basket in the preheated oven @ 180° C for 3 to 5 minutes. Be vigilant that the roses may not be over baked.
Timely bring them out of the oven otherwise roses will loose their appearance and texture. The care needed at this stage is very very high.
In the mean time, prepare the caramel glaze.
Add powdered sugar in a pan.
Melt sugar without water and cook until the sugar starts to turn into light brown on a low flame.
Add water and cook for 1 minute and stir constantly. But be careful while adding water to the hot sugar liquid.
Now bring the basket out of the oven and brush the apple roses with caramel glaze.
When the basket cools down, pour in the Whipping cream and cover the center with one reserved rose.
Also brush the center rose with a glaze. Garnish the roses with the powdered sugar.
Apple Roses basket is ready. Place it in the fridge and serve chilled either with more whipping cream or ice cream or as it is.
