How to make edible shark slime
STEP 1: Add dry slime ingredients to bowl
Pour the dry pudding mix and cornstarch into a bowl and mix well.
STEP 2: Add water and mix
Add the water and begin to stir quickly. Don’t worry if there is clumping. Just break through the clumps with your spoon.
STEP 3: Add colouring and mix ingredients until slime forms
Keep stirring and breaking the clumps. You will notice that a crumbly dough will form. Add a few drops of blue food colouring. As soon as the crumbly dough forms smash it and press it until the slime forms.
EDIBLE SLIME TIPS - If your mixture is too dry and crumbly, continue to add a teaspoon of water at a time until you get the right consistency. If too wet, sprinkle in equal parts of pudding mix and corn starch until it thickens up. The more you stir and work it, the better the consistency gets.
