Fluffy and fat free, Parade cotton candy makes a delightful snack for adults and children.
This nostalgic confection can be traced back to the 15th century. Introduced as "Fairy Floss" at the 1904 World's Fair, the machine-spun sugar was invented by William Morrison and John C. Wharton. A similar apparatus was constructed and patented by Joseph Lascaux in 1921, during which time cotton candy got its name.
Cotton candy is made by heating up sugar and spinning it into fine threads. Flavor and color is added by many manufacturers. The airy sweet is then collected and placed on a cardboard funnel to hand out. It can also be put into bags or containers. Parade Cotton Candy comes in convenient plastic tubs.
