Cotton Candy Is Never Ending Delight For Kids And A Profit Pusher For The Operator

We all know that kids love sweet things

We all know that kids love sweet things. The candy industry feeds this appetite and is an industry that is roughly worth $15 Billion in invoiced shipments annually. According to statistics EACH American ate nearly 25 pounds worth of confectionery in 2004. Since then with the credit squeeze combined with the national campaigns against obesity this has been declining somewhat as many sugar free items are eating into the traditional candy market.

The basis of the candy industry is sugar. Even the chocolate industry needs masses of sugar to augment the cocoa. Think of all the candy products on the shelf in a store and one sees large sections of chocolate bars some with fillings of caramel or toffee or nuts. There are also a huge range of chewing gum and boiled sweets and nougats, not to even begin to describe the boxed candies, boxes of chocolates and other confections.

All of these feed the nations desire for sweet things, and the basis is sugar. Many a British fortune was built on the sugar industry in the West Indies where the cultivation of sugar cane was ideal. Now however sugar is produced in many places with Brazil being the largest, followed by India. The US is the 6th.

Nevertheless a massive amount of revenue is generated by the consumption of foods that are mostly 1 component. And this is where this desire can be fed by the ever popular Cotton Candy.

Cotton candy has been around for over 300 years but the first successful Cotton Candy Machine was presented at the World Fair in 1904 selling the then called fairy candy. A re-invention in 1921 saw the name Cotton Candy come into being.

Essentially the Cotton Candy Machines are very simple. A small amount of specially ground sugar with a coloring of food flavoring is put into a rapidly spinning heated pot in the center of the machine. The heat melts the sugar which is then extruded and very thin wisps which can be caught by the operator on a stick from the sides of the external spinning drum.

It is then sold as a treat which is hugely in demand. Now despite the appearance, it being a very large volume, in fact it is mostly air. A typical serving has only 1 ounce of sugar and only 500 calories but is enough to satisfy a child's sugar craving for a long time. And of course it is not only kids, Many an adult is far from immune from breaking off a handful of this wispy, flossy sweet and delicious substance and eating it.

It is always best when fresh and a popular attraction where being made. If you have a concession at a fair or a street market, kids entertainment park or at a circus or carnival the cotton candy machine is a sure fire winner. The ingredients are prepared sugar plus a range of colorings and tastes such as Strawberry, or Orange or blueberry and there are a few newer one such as pineapple mango.
