If your kids are anything like mine, they love slime. I’ve lost track of how many little baggies of it I’ve found on the couch, in the car, even stuck to the bottom of my shoes! If you’re a parent, you get it. That’s why I was so excited to learn how to make edible slime. No more dried-up slime surprises because they can eat it when they’re done playing! The best part? It’s made with simple ingredients. There’s no borax, no glue, just safe, non-toxic fun.
Not only is this a great sensory activity, but it’s also perfect for little ones who still put everything in their mouths. Making slime together is a fun way to get creative in the kitchen without the usual sticky mess.
Whether it’s a rainy day, a playdate activity, or a boredom buster, this edible slime recipe is a game-changer. Ready to learn how to make edible slime? Let’s get started!

We do encourage our children to play with their food but only certain food. Good to know this is hot and children need supervision when making this edible slime.
Our kids love slime. I never thought of making it using Bit o’ Honey candies though. GREAT idea! Well that is if we don’t eat them all before we start playing with them.
I love the idea of edible slime. I have a 7-year-old who always ends up getting it everywhere, and I know she eats it. Edible is the only way to go with her.
I have to be honest, I am so glad that my girls were not into playing with slime when they were young. It looks like a mess to me. Making it edible sounds interesting but gross to me. I’ll have to pass this recipe onto my friends that have young ones.
That looks like FUN! I wonder if you could do it with tootsie rolls? I’d love some chocolate edible slime!
I may have to try that!
This is really cool! I am pinning it to make with my son later in the summer.
Haha my girls would LOVE this. They are obsessed with slime and edible slime would be so much fun! Thanks for the idea.
I love the idea of creating edible slime. The other stuff is just too messy. One they can eat–I am for that!
This looks like such a fun project to do with the kiddos this summer. I know they would have so much fun creating this and I love that it’s edible.
That was my mothers favorite candy, Bit o Honey! Wow, I bet this slime is quite tasty. I know my daughter would love making it.
Oh, my goodness! What a pretty nifty idea. I would love to make this with my daughter. Thanks for sharing!
I can’t wait to give this a try. My granddaughters are addicted to slime. Love that this is edible.
This is such a great idea I’ve seen a few videos on instagram on how to make this. But to be honest i am concern on toxic material they use. This is a great alternative for sure.
Now that is super cool slime. We did slime a couple of months ago but I love this one since it is edible.
Edible slime seems like so much fun and are better for the younger kids since you don’t have to worry about them consuming it. I think it would be nice to try making this with them!
Amazing! That sounds like a great idea and you wouldn’t have to end up with plenty of dry slimes in the end.
My kids would kill for this. I too find slime everywhere and anywhere. It’s great that they can eat it too
My kids love making things like this. They have always enjoyed treats made with honey too!
Oh wow, this is definitely something I can try making with my nieces! Thanks for sharing 😀
Because of the mess I am so thankful my kids were older when the slime craze hit. Edible slime is definitely an interesting idea though. I will let my family know about it who have young kids. Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty
That sounds like so much fun. I’m not sure I’d be able to resist having a nibble though 😉
