So I couldn't wait! I made a second attempt at cotton candy. Yea...it doesn't really turn out like cotton candy. ALTHOUGH I ended up with rock candy for the boys. Which they are quietly devouring as we speak ;) And I made some really pretty spun sugar designs! Which I didn't think I would be able to do, but I was and I really liked it! I plan on figuring a reason to make a cake soon just so I can decorate with it! LOL!

So final ruling on homemade cotton candy. It can't be done. BUT the recipe is awesome for making spun sugar designs or rock candy!
