Nostalgia CCM505 Cotton Candy Maker

Product Description

Now you can enjoy the wonderful taste of Cotton Candy anytime in the convenience of your own home!

I received this machine as a gift. It hardly worked my first time!
I tried it again a few days later and all I had was a ring of burnt sugar.
I sent it back and received a new one. It worked really well the first day
but then sugar went flying everywhere! I won't even sell this product!
I will let this machine sit under my cabinet, coating in dust. I have other Nostalgia products and I'm happy with them. But this is a dud!


I knew I was taking a chance when ordering this cotton candy machine because the reviews were all over the place from good to bad. I'm disappointed to say that I have to side with the BAD! I let the machine heat up for a full 10 minutes. I then stopped the machine, put in the measure of sugar and waited...and waited...and waited...and waited. When I noticed that I was feeling some prickly hot stuff on my skin, I saw that it was the tiny bits of sugar from the machine being flung on me, my counter and floors. All I got was a small,granulated ring of unedible stuff atop the edge of the bowl. Absolutely nothing was clinging to the plastic cone. So, I stopped the machine, put in another measure of sugar (a little less since I didn't want to clog the machine) and tried again. With the same result. It appears that the machine just cannot get hot enough or something? When I finally stopped the machine after 15 minutes of zip, I noticed the sugar inside the head still there -- as white as can be. So, I am packing this little do-nothing machine up and returning it tomorrow (after cleaning my kitchen to avoid any ants). Buyer-Beware! Please note that the video placed by a customer is a different cotton candy maker.


It takes about 15-25 minutes to make one like the picture. This is after hours of practice. I noticed the real floss works better than one that came with it. Still, it is fun couple times but when kids are lining up to get some this thing can not keep up and after while it stops working. For 19.99 this may work better but for $39.99, waste of money.


This the second machine I have purchased both the same type CCM505. I geuss the company I purchased it from didn't handle with care(Cooking.com). The problem was with the spinner.
Anyway this machine was the best! The amount of candy produced is great.Just warm it up for 5mins and your ready to go.It's also really easy to clean.The best part it eating the cotton candy. Competes with the carnival candy.
My advice BUY IT! You will love it.


This unit worked great out of the box. Just preheat like the instructions say and in a minute or so, it starts spinning out floss. We only made a couple of cones at one time so we can't opine about the problems people might have had making multiple cones at one time. It worked very well with the sugar supplied with the unit.


This product is just awful unless you are making cotton candy for a mouse. I'm not saying I'm looking for a whole bunch of cotton candy but come on, you can't even get enough to cover the tip of the cone. It takes forever to warm up, forever to web, and spits out pieces of sugar everywhere. Highly unrecommended.


My daughter was all excited but we couldn't make any cotton candy first time we are planning to try again the starting is so frustating it takes forever then it starts to form the candy but not very much .Don't buy it.


I like it my son and I have made many cotton candy with this. I wish that it would make more like the bigger ones but it does the job..we will use for our daughter's birthday party.


I bought this as my "cotton" gift for my wife and I's 2nd anniversary. It got a big laugh.

On the product side, it works, it's lots of fun, and it is easy to use. Kids were over with my wife making cotton candy and had no trouble at all.

Good product. Fast delivery.


We bought this machine for my 6-year old who had requested a cotton candy machine for the past two years. The machine works, but it takes quite a bit of time to get much cotton candy. First you let it warm-up 5 minutes. Then you add the floss. It takes about 5-10 more minutes to get a small cone of candy (maybe as much as they show with the picture, but that's kind of a stretch). Then you can immediately add another scoop of floss for a second cone. Sometimes we're able to make a 3rd cone, but usually it works best if we turn it off, wash it out (the sugar gets melted and stuck inside) and then start over (with another 5 minute reheat). So if you're doing this for one person it works fine, but plan on spending 45 minutes to make cotton candy for 4 kids and don't even think of bringing this to your church party. I think it's the best value out there for $40, though, as anything more powerful starts in the $500 range.

Also, the floss included with the machine didn't work at all (it was very coarse), it just gummed it up. Luckily we had bought some professional floss, but I think regular sugar would have worked fine too. It also came with 2 reusable plastic cones, the paper ones we bought were a lot easier to make a cone on.
