Really Edible Crayons

Really Edible Crayons

As parents of young children, we constantly worry about what our kids put in their mouths.

Any toy, equipment, clothing that has even a trace of toxicity gets us up in arms and worried. But designers Luxirare have very, very painstakingly (and we do not use the word lightly) created a palette of crayons from food items (like freeze dried corn, nuts, beans) which contribute to the color of the crayon. This is food coloring at its purest.

These crayons are really for eating.
