Cotton Candy

Now who doesn't love cotton candy!

I do!

Grandboy got a cotton candy machine for Christmas and I wanted to try it out.

Shh.....He's not home so I don't have to share my cotton candy.

This little machine is pretty cool. 
It's made by Nostalgia Electronics.

You can use sugar, hard candy and even sugar-free hard candy....

We decided to use the leftover homemade cinnamon candy that I made for Christmas..

So we just plug in the machine and let it heat up for 5 minutes

And after it heats up, we turn it off and just drop in a few pieces of candy...

We turn it back on and after a few seconds it starts making cotton candy...

It came with 2 wands and you just make a circular motion with a 

wand to get the cotton candy.

And here's our bundle of pretty, pink cotton candy...

Clean up is super simple. Just pop the bowl off...

And then pull the 'extractor head' off and wash (be careful though and use a pot holder cause that baby is hot!)...

The green color is from green sugar that my husband used after we used the cinnamon candy.....but I was done and didn't want any more pictures.

This will be used a lot. For birthday parties, family get to-gethers, just because we want cotton candy and just because.

 I love the fact that you can use sugar-free candy!

And the retro look of the machine is pleasing to the eyes.
If you have kids, I would recommend this machine and 
if you don't have kids, I would still recommend it! 

I think I love this thing!

I was not compensated in any way for this post. 
This is my own opinion that I wanted to share with you.
