Woman finds a candy floss vending machine in Mzansi

It seems there is such a thing as 'bougie' candy floss...

We have seen some crazy vending machine concepts like 'The Cake Boss' Bartolo "Buddy" Valastro Jr.'s cake vending machine, while an eyelash vending machine recently caught our attention and remember the french fries one that lives in Europe? 

But this has got to make the most sense in terms of appeal. 

Candy Floss is something that we usually see during festivals and is more of a party treat. Due to the intricate way of spinning it and the bulky equipment, we don't find it everywhere. 

Instead, we always find stores keeping the spun candy floss inside air-sealed packets. 

Of course, this is why we were so surprised when we saw a video of a cotton candy vending machine. 

What's even more exciting is that it was located at a mall in South Africa.

Would you pay R50 for a bougie designed pop of candy floss?
