Fairy Floss

Assalamualaikum and good night.
Fairy floss! Do you know what is a fairy floss?
In other words for fairy floss is cotton candy. Recently, I (Ila)  like to eat cotton candy, so I search something about it. This is my search result,  Fairy floss (Australian), cotton candy (US, Canada) is a form of spun sugar. Since cotton candy is mostly air, is a small initial quantity of sugar generates a tremendously greater final volume, causing servings to be physically large and voluminous. A typical serving  on a stick is approximately and contains roughly 115 dietary voluminous. it is often served at fairgrounds or circuses. Food colouring is used to changed the natural white colour.

Cotton candy was first recorded around the 1900s. At that time, spun sugar was an expensive, labor-intensive endeavor and was not generally available to the average person. Machine-spun candy was invented in 1897 by the dentist William Morrison and confectioner John C. Wharton and first introduced to a wide audience at the 1904 World's Fair as "Fairy Floss" with great success, selling 68, 655 boxes at the then-high price of 25¢, half the cost of admission to the fair. Fairy Floss was renamed to "Cotton Candy" in the 1920s. In the 1970s an automatic cotton candy machine was created which made the product and packaged it. This made it easier to produce and available to sell at carnivals, fairs, and stores in the 1910s.
Tootsie Roll of Canada Ltd., the world's largest cotton-candy manufacturer, makes a bagged, fruit-flavored version called Fluffy Stuff.
The United States celebrates National Cotton Candy Day on 7th December.

The cotton candy is sticky, sugary and sweet, it dissolves quickly in the mouth although it fells like wool to the touch. It does not have much of an aroma although the machine itself has a cooked sugar smell when in operation.  When it comes in contact with moisture, it becomes sticky and moist. Because the sugar is hygroscopic (ability of a substance to attract and hold water molecules from the surrounding environment, and has a very large surface area, it will become coarser, harder and generally less "flossy" once exposed to the atmosphere.
