The present invention relates to modelling doughs comprising: a) at least one starch-containing flour; b) at least on low vapour pressure (i.e. less than 2kPa at 25°) polar solvent; and c) water. Typically the doughs will also contain optional ingredients such as softeners, preservatives and/or additives. The invention further relates to filled doughs comprising the modelling doughs incorporating an inert filler and to methods for the production of both the modelling dough and the filled dough. The modelling dough can be formed by combining the components a)-c) and heating. In the preferred embodiments the starch is a mixture of rice flour and glutinous rice flour while the preferred polar solvent is glycerol. Preferred ranges are a) 10-60% by weight of starch-containing flour, b) 20-70% polar solvent, and c) 5-45% water. It is also preferred that there be more polar solvent than water. |
