Do you remember begging for cotton candy at every baseball game, circus, or arena your parents took you to? This sugary treat has been the delight of children and the dismay of adults for over a century. Cotton candy is a deliciously fluffy confection wrapped around a paper cone and is usually flavored and colored with something wonderfully artificial. Although it was once a treat saved for the circus or the fair, today cotton candy is available at shopping malls, grocery stores, and can even be available to you in your own home with the rental of a cotton candy machine. These machines are popular at birthday parties, fundraisers, sporting events, and more. So whether your are thinking of entering the cotton candy business, or whether you just have a major sweet tooth, you’ll want to know all about this sweet treat that has dentists everywhere cringing.
