He's got a great team behind him as his business starts to take off. His mom (affectionally known as the MOM-ager at Cloud Co.) serves as his investor, coach, social media manager and transportation. His dad is remodeling an area of their home to be a dedicated cotton candy studio.

Cloud Co. has experimented with over a dozen flavors that you may have never dreamed could be cotton candy. Blackberry, Irish cream, root beer, coconut, lavender, watermelon and butterscotch are just a few that Dave's offered customers since the small business launched in January.

He sells his cotton candy in 32 oz containers for $3, offers free delivery in Nampa ($5 delivery in Boise and outlying areas) and even has a small retail area inside Tona Transformations.

The rainbow of flavors Cloud Co. has isn't the only thing grabbing people's attention! They're offering the next big trend for Valentine's Day - Cotton Candy Bombs! When you dissolve these small balls of champagne flavored cotton candy in sparkling water, sodas like Sprite or white wines, you get a shimmering beverage! Available in red, silver or pink, the cotton candy bombs include a bit of edible glitter to make the shimmer effect happen.

Interest in grabbing a few of these as gifts? They run $5 a piece and you can find more details about how to order in time for Valentine's Day on Cloud Co.'s Facebook page!
