Cotton Candy Makers - Version 1.0.0.0 Cotton candy is one of those amazing foods that seems like magic until you know the secret. There is no way to produce cotton candy without special equipment (cotton candy machine), but if you have the equipment, it is incredibly easy! Cotton Candy is made from Floss Sugar or Flossine mixed with granulated sugar. The sugar is first melted to a liquid. The cotton candy machine spins the liquid sugar and forces the liquid through tiny holes. When the sugar pass through the tiny holes it is shaped and cooled and becomes a solid again. The center of the cotton candy machine soon becomes filled with tasty sugar threads, which are collected and served on a paper cone.
