Cotton candy, sometimes called "fairy floss", is a type of treat that looks like fluffy clouds, but it's actually made of sugar.
Basically, a machine spins sugar very, very fast with a lot of heat, turning it into a thin thread that forms a web-like shape. Then, a special spinning cone is used to collect the threads of sugar, and they stack up like a big cotton ball.
The best part about cotton candy is that it comes in all sorts of colors and flavors, like blue raspberry, pink vanilla, and even bubblegum. It's a fun, sweet treat that's perfect for fairs, carnivals, and other special events.
So, when you see cotton candy, just remember it's like eating a sweet, fluffy cloud made entirely of sugar threads!
