About Carnival Treats
The smell hits you before the midway comes into view, fried dough and warm caramel drifting on summer air. A candy apple gleams under the string lights, its hard red shell cracking with the first bite to reveal the crisp fruit beneath. Snow cones drip rainbows of syrup down small, sticky hands while the lemonade stand does a brisk trade all afternoon long.
