Did You Know There’s A Variety Of Grapes That Tastes Like Cotton Candy?

Do you love grapes? Imagine the ordinary green and smooth grapes, but the moment you take a bite, you taste the familiar yet unexpected flavour of cotton candy. Delicious, and surprising, right? The Cotton Candy Grape is a variety of boutique strains that comes with new and surprising flavours, different sizes, and varying levels of crunchiness.

Grapes That Taste Like Cotton Candy

Cultivated by plant breeders in California, Cotton Candy Grapes is a grape variety that tastes just like candy floss or cotton candy. They have an oval berry shape with a crisp, firm texture, and are a lighter yellow-green colour than usual grapes.

These grapes have a distinct sweetness and a recognisable flavour, making standout from regular grapes. They also have a “pop” when you bite into them that reminds people of cotton candy’s mouthfeel, and tastes like spun sugar. Cotton Candy Grapes are made by cross-pollinating regular grocery store grapes with Concord grapes.
