Amy Winehouse has reportedly been holding parties where she hands out a mixture of cocaine and candyfloss.

According to the News Of The World, the singer owns a £700 candyfloss machine that she uses for 'Coke and Candy' nights at her North London home.

She was allegedly encouraged to mix the two ingredients by Babyshambles musician Mick Whitnall.

"It was Mick's idea," said an insider. "The candyfloss machine was Amy's pride and joy and he thought it would be funny to give it a boost.

"He and some pals sprinkled a wrap of coke into the mixture and Amy started eating it before she realised what they'd done. She now thinks it's a hoot to do the same."
