About BLUE RASPBERRY EASTER COTTON CANDY, BLUE RASPBERRY
Meijer Blue Raspberry Easter Cotton Candy is a seasonal confectionery product sold under the Meijer private label, featuring cotton candy in a blue raspberry flavor. Cotton candy (also known as candy floss) is produced by spinning heated sugar through fine holes, creating thin strands of solidified sugar. The ingredient list is minimal: sugar, powdered sugar (sugar and cornstarch), Blue 1 (a synthetic colorant), and natural and artificial flavor. The powdered sugar with cornstarch is used to absorb moisture and maintain the spun candy texture. Blue 1 provides the characteristic blue color associated with the blue raspberry flavor concept.
At 393 calories per 100 grams with carbohydrates at 100g per 100g, this product is essentially pure sugar by weight. Per 100g: 0.0g protein, 100.0g carbohydrates, 0.0g fat, no fiber. All calories derive entirely from sugar. The calorie density is high, though typical serving amounts are very small given the light, airy nature of cotton candy. The listed serving size in the USDA data is 28 grams.
This product contains no major allergens based on the ingredient list, though cornstarch is present in the powdered sugar component as a flow agent. It is suitable for vegans and vegetarians (refined sugar and synthetic colorants are generally considered vegan). It is gluten-free. The Blue 1 colorant is a synthetic azo dye. The artificial and natural flavor combination is standard for blue raspberry flavor systems, which typically mimic the flavor of white bark raspberries (Rubus leucodermis) rather than standard red raspberries. This is a seasonal holiday product targeted at children, sold as part of Meijer's Easter seasonal confectionery assortment.
