Frequently asked
When was cotton candy invented?
Cotton candy was invented in 1897 by a dentist named William Morrison and a confectioner named John C. Wharton. Surprisingly, a dentist created this sugary treat! They called it 'fairy floss' and introduced it at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis, where it became an instant sensation and gained the name 'cotton candy' in America.
How is cotton candy made?
Cotton candy is made by heating and spinning sugar using a special machine. Colored sugar or flavoring is melted in a heated bowl, then spun rapidly outward through tiny holes. As the sugar cools and solidifies during spinning, it creates thin threads that are collected on a stick, forming the fluffy cloud-like treat we recognize today.
What flavors and colors does cotton candy come in?
Cotton candy comes in dozens of flavors and colors beyond the classic pink and blue. You can find grape, cherry, watermelon, bubblegum, and even unusual flavors like birthday cake and cotton candy grape. Colors range from bright pastels to neon shades, and some vendors create multicolored versions by spinning different colors together.
