Crazy Aaron's product pages carry an origin line reading "Made in the USA from the finest materials around the world" and "Manufactured with the help of exceptional individuals with disabilities," so some raw materials are imported. When we checked, Crazy Aaron's online store did not list any Land of Dough products for sale, so we could not read an origin line on a current Land of Dough product page.
How we checked: On 2026-10-23 we followed landofdough.com to its Crazy Aaron's welcome page and read Crazy Aaron's About Us page, FAQ, product catalog and a current Thinking Putty product page with its origin line.
