3 REASONS WE CAN’T SEEM TO GET ENOUGH
- Did you know Sugar’s the only true ingredient in Cotton Candy? When spun, Cotton Candy’s all white because it’s made from just Sugar. Adding dye can transform the color of Cotton Candy.
- A thread of Cotton Candy is thinner than a strand of human hair though the treat can be very long. In fact, the longest Cotton Candy was created in July 2009 and stretched over 1,400 meters.
- Cotton Candy has different names around the world and in England, it’s called Candy Floss. In Australia and Finland, Cotton Candy is called Fairy Floss. In the Netherlands, Cotton Candy is known as Suikerspin, which means “Sugar Spider.” In France Cotton Candy is called Barbe à Papa, which means Papa’s Beard.
