Ingredients amounts needed to make a small bowl full with one colour (repeat if wanting to make more colours):
You will need:
- 1/2 cup of baking/bicarbonate of soda
- 1/4 cup of sugar
- 1/4 cup of cornflour
- 1tsp cream of tar tar
- 1-3 tbsp water
- Food colouring
Method:
- Pour your bicarbonate of soda, sugar, cornflour and cream of tar tar in a bowl and mix together with a whisk
- Add a few drops of food dye to 1/4 cup of water
- Add 1-2 tbsp of the water to the dry mixture and mix using a whisk
- If your mixture is still quite dry add 1 more tbsp of water and mix well using your whisk until you have a fluffy snow like texture
- Place into the fridge for 1 hour until cool
Tip:
If your mixture is a little runny or gloopy when taking it out of the fridge, add a table spoon of cornflour at a time until it’s harder consistency. Once made, your mixture will last in an airtight container for up to a year to reuse in play again and again just remember to place it in the fridge for 1 hour before play if you want it to be cold.
