This flat-backed oval dome is hollow, and was created using an oval-shaped cutter. Cernit is quite stretchy when unbaked, and sheets of clay work wonderfully with the die forming technique. The clay conditions easily and responds very well to the heat of your hands, soon becoming very smooth and workable. (This is true with many clay brands, by the way.) In most cases, I found that a slice of the clay would go through the pasta machine with little to no crumbling and flaking. This could be due to age (more popular colors such as black and white are always newer due to faster turnover), or it could just be that some colors are more soft. Once you slice off some of the clay and start working with it, you’ll notice that some colors are firmer than others. When you open the package, Cernit looks very similar to any other brand of polymer clay. Any packages of that size are quite old.) (Note: Cernit used to come in a 62g package, but this was changed several years ago. The blocks come with a plastic package that’s heat-sealed on each end like a candy bar, so the packages are air-tight. So it’s more similar than it is different from the brands you’re already familiar with.Ĭernit comes in 56g (roughly the same as 2oz) package and some colors also come in larger 500g (just over one lb) packages. You can mix Cernit with any other brand of polymer clay, and you can use it for all the techniques you’re used to using when you create, such as extruding, mokume gane, caning, using texture sheets, etc. It comes in a bar, is a putty-like dough that you work with to create something, you can cure it in the oven, and you can carve, sand, drill, and paint it after baking. Cernit polymer clay is, in general, just like any other brand of polymer clay.
