DIY Playdough




This is what you will need:

6 teaspoons Cream of Tartar
50 drops Food Coloring
Wax Paper



Lay out a large sheet of wax paper, set aside.  In a large heavy pot and over medium heat, combine flour, water, salt, vegetable oil and cream of tartar.  Once everything is blended together, add food coloring.  Stir constantly until dough pulls away from the sides of the pan and forms a firm ball in the center.  Remove from pan and place on wax paper.  Knead to get the flour lumps out. Pick out the larger flour lumps with your fingers and continue to knead until smooth.  Store in an airtight container.

Dip tip of lollipop stick into melted candy, then insert a little ways into the ball. Lay flat on pan.

to continue use. Place in the fridge for 1 hour. Just before removing from fridge, melt ½ of a 

bag of the desired candy color wafers and 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a small narrow bowl in 

the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until completely melted. Remove 5 cake pops at a 

time from the fridge. Dip most of the cake pop in the melted candy. Use a spoon to drizzle the

finger to remove excess melted candy from near the stick. Top with sprinkles and place in 

styrofoam. Continue to dip in batches of 5 and melt candy wafers as needed to continue use.

leftover hardened candy in bowl and use to seal any cracks in coating. Place back in styrofoam

 to harden. Place a treat bag over each cake pop and tie with ribbon.

More Light It Up Blue

My granddaughter sent me these picturess of her take on "Light It Up Blue For Autism". I was thrilled she was participating in this event that means so much to me! She said when she grows up she wants to be a research scientist and find a cure for autism. This would be a dream come true for me and for my grandchild to make such a discovery, would be even more awesome.
