Where would I get the tool that makes the hair on the figures?

Thank you

I got my sugarpaste gun at Beryl's...it works great but before I got one...I used my garlic press which also worked OK.

I think you can get them many places though..

I think you are speaking of a clay gun or clay extruder. They can be used with rolled fondant. You can find them at Michaels, Joanns and maybe Hobby Lobby but we don't have a HL in my area so am only guessing. They come with all kinds of disks that make different shapes like rope, hair, bamboo, etc.

Here is the type I have, you can get larger ones but my hands are small and I find them to hard to press out the fondant.

I just use my garlic press, or small flat leaves, pressed together. ( I use the small leaf cutter out of the wilton fondant class pack). I know that sounds crazy, but I can't explain it......

If you have the tip that makes grass, it would also make hair. Tip #233 or 234
