Sugar Rush
Sugar Rush is a street Cotton Candy cart, which makes the behaviour of eating in public a more attractive and enjoyable experience. Egyptians in general love eating in public with their friends as a opportunity for gathering and having a little chat. Sugar Rush is unique due to its minimal design, which makes it light weight and portable. It comes with different bright colours to attract children, as they are the main target group. It has a music box inside with a handle outside, which produces music when turned, to make the waiting of the cotton candy to be made, an interesting experience. Moreover, grabs the attention of other passing people to know where the music comes from.
