SculpeySoufflé Clay
Holly Klaus
Sculpey Premo and Sculpey Souffle can be used pretty interchangeably in clay design work. When looking for a polymer clay suitable for jewelry design, durability is very important. Both of these clays become very strong and flexible when cured in the oven for at least an hour.
I slightly prefer Sculpey Souffle over Premo because the colors are trendier and the clay has a smooth texture that is never sticky. However, it's marginally more expensive and much harder to source than Premo.
Also, neither of these clay varieties noticeably shift in color after curing. The only exception is Sculpey Premo’s Translucent and White Translucent colors, which become much more yellow-tinted when cured. For this reason, if you are looking to create with a lot of translucent colors, I would recommend Cernit instead. Otherwise, these clays cannot be beaten.
