A Daring Spin On Cotton Candy

Cecilia Gonzalez-Gordon

Would you believe us if we told you we have developed a version of Fairy Floss (a.k.a. Cotton Candy) that is actually healthier yet still as tasty and fluffy as the original?

... Drum Roll Please ...

New and Improved
Grown By Nature and Spun Into Fluff

... We Bring You ...

... FAIRY 'FOS' ...

Traditional Fairy Floss is simply straight sugar and often has artificial flavoring and coloring added... This was not going to cut it for us at Spun Out, so, we searched near and far for healthier alternatives, when suddenly we realized that the answer had been right under our beaks all along... SUGAR BEETS !!!

Much like our ostrich friends, these amazing plants store something extraordinary underneath the surface. Beyond beautiful on the inside, the sugar beet root is also delicious, nutritious, and naturally sweet. We use a plant-based prebiotic fiber that comes from non-GMO sugar beets to make our Fairy FOS.

Slightly Sweet and Low In Calories
No Sugar Rush and No Sugar Crash
(Backed By Science)

You may be thinking to yourself "I used to love cotton candy, it's been so long!" or maybe you immediately picture your own kid's face light up with the brightest smile as they turn to you and ask "can we get some, pleeeeeeeaaaase?" as you near the whirring hum of the machine and sweet scent that fills the air... and maybe you're wondering...

... "why re-invent the wheel?" ...

...Well, at Spun Out we are all about innovation and transformation. We believe that most problems actually do have solutions... even if those solutions are yet to be discovered! It is also in our core to contribute to the solution instead of feeding into the problem, which leads us to share with you the following...

In the very early stages of developing our brand, we came face to face with a harsh reality: one of the pillars in our foundation was very much misaligned. We won't "sugarcoat it", we were selling, and therefor also encouraging the consumption of a highly addictive and highly problematic substance, sugar! ... And that, made us sick to the stomach ... We had to find an alternative to this. 

Throughout history sugar has been-- for lack of better phrasing-- shoved down our throat, often in the guise of a "treat" or a "guilty pleasure." What is even scarier, is that sugar eventually was being added many food products without the public's knowledge. Check out the blog post Unsugarcoated History of Sugar to learn more!

Our desire to bring positive change to the world led us to tirelessly researching alternatives and culminated in this fantastic discovery. The implementation and use of Fairy 'FOS' rather than sugar, ties directly into into the Spun Out mission, which is: 

To entertain, educate and empower through our unique and engaging immersive Spun Out experience.

The development of a healthier alternative, along with the dissemination of information regarding the dangers and unsavory history of sugar, and our efforts to educate and empower people are all initiatives that are driven by our paren't company, FLOSS. Public Benefit Corporation, and our commitment to:

Operating in a responsible and sustainable manner.
