Why cold porcelain

I use cold porcelain because it is cheaper than polymer clay. Now I`m thinking that is hour to begin to make mini foods and for some kind of foods, making canes (fruits, etc) the polymer clay maybe better. In You tube we can find some tutorials about cold porcelain home made. I`ve done some time ago and it was very nice but at time I didn`t mini foods, and I don`t know how my home made cold porcelain would look like in foods. Now I`m using a cold porcelain that I buy. It`s easy to find and is cheap. Let`s think about doing canes with polymer clay.
