Has anyone tried a Grug cake?

I think the 3D cake would be achievable, having said that I tend to be too ambitious with what I attempt (and suffer the consequences later!) so I'm not sure if I am the person to listen to
Instead of a kind of garlic press type method for a big cake, you could roll out fondant thin and cut it into super skinny strips (using a specific tool for cutting strips or a pasta cutter) which might make the hair a bit easier to handle and less likely to break. You could then do 2 different shades of brown to make it more Grug-y with this method. But I think for cupcakes you would go single colour and garlic press method.
If you google fondant hair tutorial or look on pinterest there are some pages and videos that show different ways to do hair that might help with ideas?

Ooh, thank you. YES a pasta maker would be the perfect tool! Will look at those videos later. I am feeling quite pumped about this now
Just need to decide if I go for the big or little Grugs...

I would love to see photos of the end product! I have faith that you can pull the brilliant/harebrained Grug cake off

Go on Pinterest they have a few 3D grug cakes on there.
