Have a look for bear/onion grass on ebay. I'm making a cake with curly ribbon like this and it took me ages to find out what it was

I would highly recommend getting your sugarpaste from a sugarcraft shop. I find the supermarket stuff to be too sticky and difficult to work with.

I use Morrisons sugarpaste and its so easy to work with, you can have a look at cakes I make with it and I find it as good as regalice (renshaws one)
