First, decide which glasses you are going to use and look at how wide the opening on the glasses are to determine how small or large to make cotton candy glitter bomb balls. You want the cotton candy glitter bomb to easily fit through the opening of your glass. You may have to pinch of a piece of cotton candy and test one or two before adding glitter and making all of them.

After determining what size your cotton candy glitter bomb ball should be, pinch off enough cotton candy and use a small measuring spoon to add 1/8 tsp edible glitter to each and gently fold together until a somewhat round ball is made. Very important note: Please make sure your hands and fingers are extremely clean and thoroughly dry before handling the cotton candy. You do not want to expose it to any moisture before these will be used.

To activate your cotton candy glitter bombs, simply drop into champagne, sparkling cider or any translucent drink. As soon as the cotton candy glitter bomb hits the beverage it will dissolve, and the edible glitter will disperse and make the drink sparkle. For a swirling fun effect, use a swizzle stick or straw to stir.

How to store cotton candy glitter bombs until ready to use: Until ready to use, store cotton candy glitter bombs in an airtight container and then place into a freezer baggie to prevent any moisture from entering. Store at a cool room temperature in a dark area, or double bag and freeze. Due to possible humidity in fridge, I would suggest not storing them there for long and increasing the chance of sugar crystals melting. They should be safe to consume for up to the expiration date on cotton candy, but I suggest making cotton candy glitter bombs no more than one or two weeks before needed to ensure sure no moisture gets into them from humidity.
