A children's party at home? You really need to turn your head to occupy the little ones. Another dilemma is how to feed them. Pizza and cake? No, it comes to life. We need something better, more unique. Since children's holidays are not without sweets, we suggest giving children sugar. Yes, after a teaspoon of sugar. Just not right away. Do you know what can be done by heating a spoonful of sugar and turning it in a bowl with holes? Yes, rightly, it will stack wool. Kids really love cotton candy, so almost no child will refuse to enjoy such a simple sweet at any party.

How does a cotton wool machine work?

The principle of operation of the sugar wool apparatus is very simple. Add sugar to the bowl with the holes on the sides. It is heated when the liquid sugar begins to flow through the holes, it immediately cools and turns into thin threads. All that remains is to catch those threads by twisting them on a simple wooden stick. Everything - sugar wool ready to eat.

For many, this may seem like a fairly new device, emerging in a couple of decades. In Lithuania, maybe, but this device appeared in the world back in 1904 during the St. Louis Science Fair. It was invented even earlier, in 1897. Paradoxically, however, it was invented by a dentist and confectioner from Nashville, Tennessee.

True, the sugar wool machine at the time was not electric. The sugar melting pot was rotated by a foot mechanism that pots have been using successfully for a couple of thousand years. The U.S. even has a national holiday, Sugar Wool Day, which is celebrated on December 7th. This proves once again that this invention has made a huge impact on American culture.
