Sweet Puffy Clouds

SOOOO excited to be planning another bridal shower with my mom for two of my dear friends (who are twins!). I am always looking for ways to make favors or decorations unique and memorable. Last night something struck me and now I have become a little bit fixated on the idea.....COTTON CANDY!!! Can you think of anything prettier, than puffy pink clouds of delicious sugar??!! Am I the only adult who still gets a bucket of it at baseball games, or on the boardwalk at the beach?? Cotton Candy is honestly one of those things that evokes such wonderful childhood memories its incredible! I am struggling to find a company that will sell bulk pink cotton candy that I could package up in cute containers to hand out as favors, so naturally I researched an at home cotton candy making machine (which might be cheaper in the long run!). Needless to say I found some beautiful inspiring pictures to share with you all.







Doesn't that just make you want to eat some???!! If anyone has used cotton candy for weddings or events, would you please recommend a vendor or company to purchase it from??

** I found out that one of the huge gluttonous buffets in Vegas serves Huge sticks of cotton candy on the dessert table...D.I.E!!! So pumped:)

i bet you could rent a cotton candy machine!!! i think you should print off cute sticker labels (find them on etsy) for the shower for a personal touch to the bags of cotton candy- so cute!!

what a great idea =)

I love cotton candy! It surprised me when I found out it's not too high in calories. I guess because it's mostly air?
