Cotton Cravings Makes a 'Sweet Mesquite' Cotton Candy Flavor

— January 9, 2018 — Lifestyle
Although some of the most classic cotton candy flavors available are blue raspberry and pink vanilla, Cotton Cravings is a company that sets itself apart by producing unconventional varieties like Cinnamon Bun Bonanza and Egg Nog Excellence. While the majority of Cotton Cravings' gourmet and all-natural cotton candy flavors lean towards the sweet side, it introduced a savory flavor with Sweet Mesquite that emulates the savory, smoky taste of ribs.

The Sweet Mesquite cotton candy flavor is made with organic evaporated cane juice, without artificial flavors and colors. To further highlight the simple, organic nature of the freshly spun flavored sugar product, Cotton Cravings' product packaging also notes that the gourmet candy floss flavor is free of preservatives, allergens and gluten.

As well as selling a range of flavored sugar mixes, the brand also sells DIY equipment for the cotton candy enthusiast.
