Hmm interesting. I never realised it was sometimes called candy floss over there too. Kind of makes sense though because anything with "candy" in the name is most likely borrowed from the American language.
BTW, here in Australia it's called "fairy floss".

It’s definitely not common and a lot of people wouldn’t know what you’re talking about. Come to think of it, I’m pretty sure I’ve only seen it referred to as candy floss when it’s the shitty, prepackaged bagged stuff you buy at the grocery store.
