Here finally is the much requested cotton candy tutorial!
Thank you for your patience!
Have fun! I tried to break down the steps as simple as possible. Let me know how your cotton candies turn out. :]
Note about part III:
If you're worried about the stability of tucking, my cotton candy was put through 2 long con days (+ travelling) and did not deteriorate or change condition at all.
Why make fake cotton candy?
It's not sticky.
It won't melt.
It lasts longer.
Easier to transport.
It's a prop!
Get in touch with me on 
facebook, if you like. :]

Thanks for the tutorial. Polyester stuffing alone didn't have the right texture, but this will do it!

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I had a similar idea to obtain a cotton candy effect, but I wasn't quite sure were to start. It gives me a lot of new ideas!
