This is Nicole's CP recipe:

Cold Porcelain Recipe

1 Cup of cornstarch (corn flour in the uk)

1 Cup of Pva Glue 

1 Tsp Glycerin

1 Tsp of cold cream

Put all of it into a microwave bowl and mix well and then put it into the microwave for 2 mins BUT!! Stop the microwave every 20sec and mix the cp well and put it back into the microwave and then start stopping the microwave every 10sec and mix it well until its cooked

its cooked when it doesn’t stick to your fingers 

and then knead it for 5mins and then let it cool off in a Tight lid box or cling film or plastic bag  for 24 hours 

and then its ready to model with it

DO NOT add any water to the CP at all otherwise it will crack!!!

Use cold cream to moist the CP if needed

Don’t leave your CP paste or CP model near a window or anywhere where there is a draft otherwise it will make it crack!!"

Use Pva Glue to stick the model parts together 

it will take around 2 days-4days to dry out  and then you can Varnish it 

Hope this method proves as good for you as it does for me!
