Create Your Own Tasty Edible Playdough at Home

As a working mom of young kids, I can tell you I have made my share of homemade edible playdough. It is a lot of fun. You can quickly make a batch of these for playtime, but you don’t have to worry about your little ones putting it in their mouths. I soon figured this out when my daughter started to put Play-Doh in her mouth.

Most edible Playdough recipes call for flour and a few other ingredients that do not taste good. This recipe is sugar-based and uses honey. Depending on what you have on hand in your pantry, you will be able to make this recipe.

We hope you will find this info helpful because edible play dough is one of our most popular searches on Inspiring Savings. Plus, check out our no-cook playdough recipe.

What you are going to need to make Playdough

Please note that a printable version of this recipe with instructions is listed below. Just scroll down. This recipe is made without cream of tarter. You will notice the ingredients are “non-toxic” and gluten-free.

• 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter (melted)
• 1/4 cup Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups Powdered Sugar

How to Make Edible Play-Doh

STEP ONE: To make your edible playdough, the first thing you need to do is grab a microwave-safe bowl and melt your butter. Using this same bowl, add honey, vanilla, and salt to your melted butter.

STEP TWO: Next, you will add the powdered sugar one cup at a time until blended. You may need to use a mixer as it will get pretty tough to mix as you add more powdered sugar.

STEP THREE: At this point, feel free to add a few drops of food coloring, or separate them into smaller portions and create different colors. I prefer using gel food coloring.

STEP FOUR: Once it is mixed well, it won’t come off on hands or surfaces, though, so no worries there. Now you are ready for play time.

Lastly, when your kids are done playing with this playdough – throw it out. This is a one-time use edible playdough. Since hands go in the mouth, and mouth cooties go on hands and back onto the play dough. See where I am going?
