There is nothing quite as magical as cotton candy. It is a weird combination to make a fluffy, puffy, and edible sugary treat that is simply delightful. Did you know that the person who invited cotton candy was a dentist right here in Tennessee? That's a fun story for another time. Puffy Cotton Candy is a store in Frankland that didn’t invent cotton candy but they certainly perfected it. With a large variety of characters, they mold and shape these fuffy treats into beautiful edible art.

It all started with the love for cotton candy.

Husband and wife team Brendon Holland Curtis could not get enough of this fluffy treat, so they bought their own cotton candy machine. Not content to just make delicious creations they soon started to experiment with different designs. What they discovered about themselves is the ability to make some of the most life-like cartoon characters that just look amazing. After posting these online they realized very quickly that they had something unique and special so Puffy Cotton Candy was born.

Their creations can range from seasonal characters to cartoon favorites and so much more.

There is a rather robust menu of offerings, but you can make requests that they might add to the lineup. All of the characters have clever names to not give away their true identity like Spider-man is named Insect Hero, and Baby Yoda is simply called Baby Alien. The delightful names are only second to these colorful creations.

Place an order and then watch as the cotton candy starts to fly and they masterfully craft a piece of art within minutes.

The stick twirls, and like magic, the cotton candy starts to form and is placed on a stand and the pieces all get placed to create a work of art. Everything on the stick is edible and it tastes just as good as it looks!

Alongside these character creations, they also offer two other unique treats, cakes and crystals. The crystals are rainbow colored crunchy bite-sized pieces spun right from the cotton candy machine. They are sold by the bag and are great for a quick snack as you continue to shop.

The cake options are just as special as getting your fluffy version of your favorite movie character on a stick. These interesting cakes can be sliced just like regular birthday cakes and served in pieces. You can also order it with a character on top or customize it with your name.

The menu is sure to grow and evolve as they hone in on their craft and add new characters.

They already boast of some impressive artistic ability already and we can hardly wait to see what they come up with next. Even if you opt to get a “cloud” (which is what they call a regular cotton candy) you can pick from a dozen different flavors. You won't find just pink and blue options here, you can also get lime, orange, grape, maple, and much more.

Next time you find yourself in Franklin you should stop by Puffy Cotton Candy and have them spin you a magical piece of art. There isn’t another place quite like this one and people can not get enough. Make sure to follow along with this couple because they are only getting started, and we are excited to see this business grow. For more information please visit the Puffy Cotton Candy website.
