I use Bullseye sometimes. As well as being a little stiffer, I think it holds heat better, so you have a bit more time to manipulate it out of the flame before it sets.
Also they do my favourite green - seaweed!
This bead is made of separate petals (clear plus different BE frits and stringer dots), kept warm then joined together on a seaweed lentil base. Sorry, it's not a great pic.
