Cotton Candy - Machines

Machines

In 1972 the first automated machine was used for the production of cotton candy. Since then the creations and innovations of this machine have become greater and greater. They range in sizes from counter-top accessible to party and carnival size. Modern machines that are made for commercial use can hold up to 3 pounds of sugar and have compartments for storage of extra flavours. The rotating bowl at the top spins at 3,450 revolutions per minute.

Famous quotes containing the word machines:

    The machines that are first invented to perform any particular movement are always the most complex, and succeeding artists generally discover that, with fewer wheels, with fewer principles of motion, than had originally been employed, the same effects may be more easily produced. The first systems, in the same manner, are always the most complex.
    Adam Smith (1723–1790)

    Shoes are the first adult machines we are given to master.
    Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)

    There are bills to be paid, machines to keep in repair,
    Irregular verbs to learn, the Time Being to redeem
    From insignificance.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
