A Unique Cotton Candy Experience
Unlike traditional festival stalls, CANDY SPIN offers an interactive and mesmerizing process. Supervised by a famous Harajuku rainbow cotton candy shop, the machine crafts professional-grade, colorful cotton candy in approximately two minutes. Customers can choose from over 20 designs, including hearts, flowers, bears, and mushrooms, and select from four flavors: strawberry, lemon, soda, and plain. Each fluffy creation costs 500 yen (tax included) and can be paid for with coins or various QR code payment options like PayPay.
The machine is strategically located on the 3rd floor of Aeon Mall Nagakute, in front of the food court.
A Captivating Show for All Ages
The process of the cotton candy being created is a spectacle in itself, captivating both children and adults. Reports from other locations highlight the machine’s allure, with many observing children “glued to the automatic candy-making process” and adults “unable to resist recording videos.” The vibrant, interactive experience has garnered significant attention on social media platforms like Instagram, with users enthusiastically sharing their sweet moments. Notably, at Aeon Mall Morioka South, the machine has consistently drawn long queues from morning until evening, underscoring its immense popularity.
This blend of “experiential” and “kawaii” (cute) elements positions the cotton candy vending machine as a new must-visit spot, promising a touch of joy for shoppers.
Operated by a Trusted Local Company
The CANDY SPIN machine at Aeon Mall Nagakute is installed and maintained by Nakazawa Co., Ltd., a company based in Konan City, Shiga Prefecture, known for operating watch specialty stores like “Time Station NEO.” This ensures reliable operation and maintenance for the new attraction.
