Candy floss facts 5

Fairy Floss
If you leave the united states and attend a fair in another part of the world, asking for cotton candy may get you a confused stare and a tilted head. Before the name was changed to cotton candy in the 1920s it was named "fairy floss." It wasn't called this because it was a treat that people ate at fairs. Instead it was called that because it reminded people of magic. Centrifugal force was not commonly understood at the time, so to watch cotton candy being made was something like watching a magic trick. The small, delicate looking candy fibers then clumped up to become a fluffy ball that is remarkably like a cloud.

Fluffy Treat!

These facts were then coupled with the idea that this sweet treat for young children earned it the name "fairy floss." In some parts of the world, the name stuck much like the strands of sugar to each other. Australia, Finland, and Norway all call this treat Fairy Floss. Lately there's been a bit of a movement back to the name in the United States, but it's unsure of how that will hold up. Most of us don't remember a time where it was called anything else but cotton candy. That and it's not very uncommon for food items to have different names depending on the country that you are having it at.
