AWhat about a thicker layer of paste on the head and then picking at it with a toothpick to get some texture.

What would you use to adhere the fro hair to the head of the molded gumpaste baby ?? I have tried piping gel, edible glue, and elmers glue . I need to make 60 cupcakes with the molded babies on top by the 30th of this month for the baby doctor's retirement. Thank You for your response to help

AUse dry dust to make hair. Do not add alcohol it's just a mess...
