No cook playdough

I made this dough version for I was was not in the mood to make the cooked one,(although it is the best one), but this came out very nice. I did add a little bit more oil and flour than the recipe says, (I found it to be a bit sticky) but you have to try it for yourselves. Also the recipe I got says to knead it until non-sticky, but I found it to be very sticky when warm,so  I left it to cool down, then knead a bit, and it was much better. I could have added more sweeto for the smell and colour though, but it came out a marsmellow pink with a hint of grape.

Here is the recipe
Mix together:
- 1/2 cup salt
- 2 cups cake flour 
- 2 tbsp oil
- 2 tbsp cream of tartar (apparently this preserves it for up to six months,we'll see how long ours lasts)
- 1 1/2cup of boiled water
- colouring of your choice, I used sweeto mixed with the water
- few drops of glycerine to make it smoother(optional)


We had fun making play cupcakes, using real cupcake toppings and candles. Also made other food items and impressions with platic play food.
Even baby had a turn, but he stuffed it in his mouth too quickly, and it does not taste good, yuck!
