What a delightful little cotton candy shop! Panda Sweet recently opened inside the Mall of Georgia and since we're local, we of course had to come see what all the hype was about.
It's a very small kiosk/shop. Two people run the entire thing. One of them makes all the larger pieces, while someone else more or less designs them. They have all sorts of sizes and shapes, from smaller ones around $5 up to a VERY large unicorn that is $20 (and worth it). I chose to get the Pikachu, which was $18. It was absolutely adorable! It was huge- I've never seen a cotton candy character this large- and it looked exactly like the menu said it would. Of course since it's cotton candy, it's quite sweet and flavorful, but it's pretty dense. It took me the entire day to finish it.
Being that it's small, they can only do one creation at a time and it takes a few minutes to do each one. This does lead to a long wait most of the time. We tried coming in on a Saturday night at 6pm (the mall and the kiosk closes at 9pm) and they were already so backed up on orders that they were no longer taking any more. We instead came around 11:30am on Sunday morning. There were 3 customers ahead of me and it took around 45 mins total to get mine.
Bottom line: You HAVE to try one of these cool creations, just get there early and be prepared to wait. But it's absolutely worth it! read more
