I need a recipe for a bake-able modeling clay. I want a recipe that is like the color of doe. I also want to be able to add food coloring to it. Please include the ingredients, what i will need, and the baking time. Thanks !
Simple “Clay” Dough
Ingredients:
4 cups white flour
1 cup salt
1 1/2 cups water
Food coloring (optional)
Instructions:
Combine flour and salt in a bowl and blend until smooth
Add 1/2 cup of water and continue to mix for a few minutes
Gradually add the remaining water and continue mixing the dough
Form the dough into a ball, working in any dry flour and salt left at the bottom of the bowl.
Knead the dough for approximately five minutes. Add food coloring if desired.
Use cookie cutters to shape this play dough or model it free hand. To dry the dough, place on a foil-covered cookie sheet. Bake in a 250-300 degree F (120-150 degree C) oven until hard (about five minutes for 1″-2″ pieces). When the baked pieces have cooled, paint them with acrylics as desired. Brush or spray on a finishing coat of polyurethane to seal and protect the ornaments.
Hope this helps. None of these are super great, but will work…and you can add color.
