I'm thinking about doing a tractor cake and having tractor pull a hay wagon which will also be a cake. I need ideas on what to use to make "hay bails" and making it look semi realistic. Any ideas for this cake are welcome. Thanks

Shredded wheat?

approx. how big would these bales be?

I used fondant covered rice Krispy treats. Textiurized it with a straight edge the dry brushed ivory food coloring over top HTH

I made some by rolling out hay colored fondant really thin and then cutting it ito tiny strips and letting it dry over night. I then went back and used RKT, added some colored royal icing and stuck the pieces on. It also worked well to scatter around the cake. I have attached a picture of the cake I did with this on it. HTH

too cute!!! thanks for sharing
