[Sca-cooks] Does anyone know of an English language source for Pişmaniye (Turkish cotton candy)?

The Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi%C5%9Fmaniye) claims
that there's a 1430s reference to it, but the source referenced is a book
and looks like it's in Turkish.  I'd love to have a citation in English
that I could use to verify the date.

Cotton candy looks like it would be a fun dessert or subtlety if the date
holds up and it is period.
