Exquisitely designed honey dip plate. Great Rosh Hashanah gift since the dipping of the apple into the Honey Bowl is a universal accepted custom. What is the reason for eating a apple dipped in honey on Rosh Hashanah?

The custom to eat apples and honey is to symbolize a "sweet new year". Many people also have the custom to dip the Challah (braided bread eaten at Jewish festivals) in honey at this time of year for the same reason. People will place the Honey Dish on the table through out the Rosh Hashanah meal to accommodate the apple dipping into honey and for the dipping of the Challah.
