5-Ethyl-4-hydroxy-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one

Sweet sugar of cottony caramel! What is candy floss water and why doesn't it flow naturally from our taps?

Likely a unicorn's favourite in a galaxy somewhere, this ingredient is made by mixing water with a synthetic aromatic compound that smells like candy floss.

The scientific name of this fragrant and flavouring compound is 5-Ethyl-4-hydroxy-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one. It is produced in China and purchased by Lush through a UK distributor.
