This is such a cool activity! My in laws did this with the kids at their chanukah party. They had so much fun and it kept them busy for a long time.
Thank you Sora for sharing!
We really appreciate it!
Hi! Wondering if this paint would stick to other surfaces such as Rice Krispie treats? Or only on cookies?
We never tried it on Rice Krispie Treats but we would think it should work.
Let us know:)
Will this work on fondant?
We would think it should work beautifully on fondant. Please let us know if you try it!
