Cotton Candy is a type of wagashi or Japanese sweet that is a cotton-like confection made by spinning sugar syrup into thin threads and then wrapping them around a stick. Locals often sold this at festivals, carnivals, and other outdoor events in Japan because it has a unique sweet and fragrant aroma¹.
Typical machines used to make cotton candy include a spinning head enclosing a small "sugar reserve" bowl into which a charge of granulated, colored sugar (or separate sugar and food coloring) is poured. Heaters near the rim of the head melt the sugar, which is squeezed out through tiny holes by centrifugal force².
