Cotton candy, a fluffy, sweet and tempting snack, you may only know its delicious taste, but you don't know the story behind it. Let's uncover this delicious secret!

Fluffy cotton candy

Cotton candy is actually transformed from sucrose, but under the magic of cotton candy making machine, sucrose is no longer that neat granular cube, but has become a slender sugar filament, intertwined, like clouds in the sky.

The magic of cotton candy making machine

Sucrose enters the cotton candy making machine, and there is a high-temperature heating cavity like a big bowl inside the machine. Heat is like a magician's hand, breaking the crystal structure of sucrose and turning it into flowing syrup. Then these syrups are sprayed out by high-speed rotation through small holes, and when they are cold, they quickly solidify and become familiar cotton candy filaments.

Control sugar intake

Although cotton candy is delicious, it is not good to eat too much sugar! Too much sugar can lead to obesity, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes and dental caries. Therefore, although it is delicious, it is necessary to control the intake!

Enjoy sweetness moderately.

Sugar is an important energy source for our body, but remember that too much intake will only bring a burden. For the sake of health, enjoy this sweetness moderately!
