The density mentioned (0.059 grams per cubic centimeter) is the overall density of the planet. Most probably it has a much much denser core, solid or thick super hot fluid, like all gas giants. It doesn’t mean that the whole planet has the same cotton candy density (0.05 grams per cubic centimeter) from the top layers down to the core ;-)
On the funny side of this, what would happen if we kept adding cotton candies at an empty/isolated place in space? After some critical mass, the cotton candies would collapse under their own weight/mass and a new asteroid would be created. If we kept adding even more candies a further collapse would create a new planet :-)
Imagine stacking/accumulating different materials. A planet made just of bananas, a planet made of only water, a planet from rice…
/note to self - check if there is such a planet simulator available
