Cotton candy is one of the sweets that I have a hard time resisting. I am delighted that it is now readily available in nonperishable packaging. All the fun without the carnies - a win/win situation. I bought this Mike & Ike flavored cotton candy at Dylan's Candy Bar a couple weeks ago and I have to say that it is absolutely delicious! There are three flavored balls in the bag - cherry, lemon, and lime. Each flavor is well executed. The cherry tastes like just like a maraschino cherry. I could have eaten three bags, but sadly I've finished my one bag and I don't know where to buy more.
Just one word of caution, when I bought the Mike & Ike cotton candy I also picked up a bag of Hot Tamales flavored cotton candy for my sister, a Hot Tamales fan. While
I didn't taste the Hot Tamales version, my sister told me it was inedible. Apparently it smelled like the interior of an abandoned car (her words, not mine) and left a weird aftertaste in her mouth. Perhaps cinnamon doesn't translate well into cotton candy.
UPDATE: I was able to find this at World Market. The new bag had one ball of lemon and two cherry. Lime was missing. Where's the quality control?
