Cloud dough recipe

                                   
taste safe cloud dough

  • 8 cups flour
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • heaping tbsp non-toxic Tempera paint powder
  • potato masher or pastry cutter & wooden spoon
  • In a large bowl, stir together the vegetable oil and flour.
  • Add the Tempera paint, give it another stir, then using a pastry cutter or potato masher, work the dough for several minutes until the colour is uniform and the ingredients are soft, silky and well-mixed.
  • This cloud dough won’t have that heavenly scent that it would if it were made with baby oil, but it still feels amazing, and your hands will be so soft after playing with it.

    PLAYING WITH YOUR CLOUD DOUGH:

    Transfer your dough to a shallow storage container (a dollar store kitty litter bin works well), and add spoons, scoops, bowls, cookie cutters and plastic moulds.
    Your kids will have a blast stirring, mixing, scooping, pouring and moulding their cloud dough.

    Cloud dough is so lovely to the touch, they’ll love simply running their hands through the bin, squeezing and shaping the dough and watching it crumble when they release it back into the bin.  I’ll bet you won’t be able to keep your hands out of it either!
  • Store your cloud dough in an air-tight container.
