They make plastic shims for leveling toilets. If you try to level it with grout it will just break. It's not plaster of Paris used on tile floors.

Yes you can use the plastic shims but many times they get swept away when people mop.

If the plaster of Paris has time to set it will form a solid base that wont be missing in a few months.

It sounds like you've run across a bad application, plaster of Paris isn't supposed to be brittle when setup.
