Deject Dough
Y'all will desire to brand existent cupcakes to consume after playing with this cloud dough because information technology smells so practiced! It is fun for kids to help make, too. But don't have too many photos of it before y'all let them play, or your might be "the meanest mom always!" :)
The secret to getting the deject dough to smell similar birthday cake is… vanilla balm. Specifically, Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar lotion. Mmmmmm…. smells and so expert!
Cloud Dough Recipe
Ingredients:
- viii cups all purpose flour
- ane cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup lotion (does non demand to exist verbal)
- nutrient coloring – optional
You can skip the nutrient coloring unless you take an oil based or powdered one. I was going for pink cloud dough, but our water-based coloring only left pinkish specs in the dough which wasn't very exciting considering there were already sprinkles to add. Some people take used powdered paint with success, but I was trying to keep it as shut to edible every bit possible in example the birthday daughter (about 2) tried to taste it.
How To Make Cloud Dough:
- Offset, add the flour to a gallon sized zipper sealed pocketbook. That is what eight cups of flour looks similar! It was a proficient corporeality for all 3 kids to play with.
2. Side by side, add together the oil and the yummy smelling vanilla lotion. We added well-nigh 1/4 cup of lotion, simply don't worry about measuring it.
three. Nil up the bag and y'all are ready to squish, mush, and massage information technology until it'south all mixed upward! The kids liked this part about as much as playing with the finished cloud dough. You lot can come across the reddish swirls because we added the pinkish nutrient coloring to the oil. Over again, skip nutrient coloring unless you have an oil based or powder food coloring.
four. When it looks crumbly like this, it'south done!
v. Dump into a container, add candles, spoons, silicone cupcake liners and sprinkles. Later in their play, I added some jewels left over from our Valentine Station and they had fun using them as decoration and hiding them inside cupcakes equally a surprise.
Mom Tip
Lay down a plastic table cloth to play on or make sure they play in an expanse piece of cake to clean up because information technology tin can get messy! That said, the cloud dough did vacuum up easily from the hardwood floor and rug. The mess was worth it to see all three girls playing together happily for almost 45 minutes!
The dough stuck together really well, but still had that silky feeling you want from cloud dough. The yummy vanilla smell alone is worth giving this 1 a try!
