Table Sugar makes amazing cotton candy bags with this machine!

Table Sugar makes great cotton candy bags with this machine! Yes, regular table sugar with no added artificial colors works great. It crystallizes and caramelizes the sugar (two tablespoons is enough for a medium fluffy cone), and as the device continues to heat and spin at high speed, small strands of cotton candy begin to swirl from the center disc until many strands form after a few seconds .. after. I've had great results with regular table sugar and the cotton candy tastes great, is very fluffy, and has the texture of cotton candy without the heavy coloring you see in Fairground cotton candy that stains your teeth. Using one of the two included plastic conesticks, picking up cotton candy is tricky but fun as you have to keep turning to catch the little fibers so they can start circling your conestick. Once you start from the base, you'll find yourself on your way to a large cone. They are reusable and washable and the top round plastic holders attach securely to the main heater when pressed properly. The heating coils glow red-hot and orange, so you know they're heating up reliably and efficiently and making cotton candy. . Nostalgia made a wonderful car here and it's amazing to finally be able to get your hands on homemade cotton candy without having to visit a store or a county fair to buy it!
