The Invention of Cotton Candy
(and what is it made from?)
Cotton candy is a soft confection that look like a fluffy mass of cotton (but there is no cotton in cotton candy).Cotton candy is made from finely-granulated sugar that is heated and spun into slim threads.
Cotton candy was invented in 1897 by William Morrison and John C.Wharton,candymakers from Nashville,Tennessee,USA.They invented a device that heated sugar in a spinning bowl that had tiny holes in it.It formed a treat that they originally called "Fairy Floss." As the bowl spun around,the caramelized sugar was forced through the tiny holes,making feathery candy that melts in the mouth.
Morrison and Wharton introduced cotton candy to the world at the St.Louis World's Fair (1904) and sold huge amounts of it for 25 cents a box (that was a substantial amount of money back then).They sold about 68,655 boxes at that fair.The term "cotton candy" began to be used in the USA around 1920.In the United Kingdom,this treat is called "candy floss." 劳驾!
棉花糖的发明(和制作)
棉花糖是一种柔软的看上去像是蓬松的棉花的食用糖类(但是棉花糖中没有棉花).棉花糖是由被烧热的白砂糖纺成的细丝做成的.
棉花糖是1897年被美国田纳西州纳什维尔的制糖人William Morrison和John C.Wharton发明的.他们发明了一种可以在一个旋转的有许多小洞的碗里加热糖仪器.他们当时称它为“梦幻的线”.当那个碗一圈圈旋转时,碗中的焦糖被从小洞中挤出去,这样就制作出了入口即化的像羽毛般的糖.
Morrison和Wharton在1904年的圣路易斯世界博览会上把棉花糖介绍给了世界,并且以25美分一盒的价钱(当时这是一个可观的数字)买出了大量的棉花糖.他们在那届世博会上卖出了68,655盒.在20世纪20年代“棉花糖”开始在美国被使用.在英国,这种东西被叫做“糖丝”.
