Topics Covered In This Video:

* Sculpey Souffle is a new line of Polymer Clay in 2014 from Polyform.

* Comes in 22 colors at the time of this posting.

* Described as lightweight, exceptionally strong clay that doesn't crack when used on large pieces.

* It has a suede-like matte finish that doesn't need to be sanded.

* The clay is soft and reminded me of the old Studio by Sculpey polymer clay which is no longer manufactured.

* Same sized block as Premo Sculpey but weighs 15% less than Premo.

* Also available in Multi-Packs.

* Designer colors... not artist based pigments.

* When I mixed Mai Tai with the Bluestone 50/50 the colors mixed equally and appeared that the saturation levels (at least with those two others) are the same.

* Colors did not shift or change when baked.

* Matte finish that doesn't need to be sanded.

* This product will sand and buff to a shiny finish, but there are tiny white specks in the clay that are visible on the sanded pieces.

* In a follow up video, I will do some strength testing.

* Souffle is an excellent substitute for the old tutorials that called for Studio by Sculpey Clay.

* Clay can be used for caning but it is a little soft, so it would be best suited for only simple cane designs.

* Bakes at 275F (130C) for 30 minutes. I think it will need to be baked for longer but I will have to do more testing to know the ideal temp and time for this clay.

* Forgot to mention in video: The clay has only a very faint smell similar to Premo and is very opaque in color.

* There is no Translucent Souffle in the lineup at this time.
