  • Next gradually stir in the remaining cornstarch. Continue to do this until the slime is no longer sticky. You can start mixing it in with a spoon and then you’ll need to use your hands to mix in the cornstarch as the slime thickens.

  • Enjoy. Then the slime is ready to play with and enjoy! It is so fun.

How to store slime:

Store pudding slime in the refrigerator inside an airtight container.  It will dry out as it stores. Due to this, you may need to stir in more water to add more moisture to the slime once it’s refrigerated. 

I would add a little at a time until it is the desired consistency. You do not want to add too much all at once.

How long will homemade slime last?

Since this slime is made with food ingredients, it will not last as long as traditional slime made with glue. It will last longer if you start with clean hands and a clean surface.

After playing with it, remove any dirty spots and discard. If you spot mold on the slime, toss it immediately.

We generally throw the slime away after 1 to 2 uses. This is just a general rule of thumb to be on the safe side. You may get more use out of yours.

What if my pudding slime is sticky?

If the slime is too sticky, add more cornstarch and if the slime is too thick, add more water. Continue to do this until the slime is the consistency that you prefer. 

The consistency is different in pudding slime than traditional slime. It does not have the same amount of stretchiness as glue based slimes have. Just keep this in mind when mixing everything together.

Can children eat Pudding slime?

This slime is not made to be eaten but is safe if it is eaten by whoever is playing with it. The idea of this type of slime is to remove the worry of children placing fingers in their mouth with slime.

This non toxic version takes away that concern. It is a great slime activity for toddlers or young children that might be tempted to put slime in their mouths.
