Community Q&A
- QuestionDo I have to use powdered sugar?
Community AnswerYes. Other sugars are too grainy, and will affect the consistency of the clay. - QuestionWill it still work if I use granulated sugar?
Community AnswerNo. Granulated sugar will prevent the candy clay from being the correct consistency. - QuestionMine is not stiffening into clay. It is very sticky too. What can I do?
CaeiiaTop AnswererAdd more powdered sugar by the teaspoonful and mix thoroughly. You can also refrigerate it.
Tips

- A clean surface/bowl is key. You don't want bits of unknown material stuck in your clay!Thanks
- Kool-Aid flavored drink (not the powder itself) instead of water adds more flavor.Thanks
Warnings
- Be sure everyone who plays with the clay has clean hands.Thanks
- Do not mix the food coloring in with your hands because the coloring will dye them.Thanks
