Description Points are awarded in three categories and totaled at the end.
First, a panel of six experts judge the quality, structural soundness, and overall beauty of the wig, which according to rules is sculpted out of spun-sugar.
Secondly, points are awarded to the first, second, and third riders to reach the finish line. Certain offenses, such as loss of wig, result in disqualification.
Last, following a short rest break after the race, each riding beast takes turns whistling the national anthem and points are awarded depending on how well they do.
The winner gets to eat the other participant's spun-sugar wigs, the losers are tarred and feathered, and the riding beasts are turned loose to frolic freely in the woods until next year's races.

This picture screams sugar and candy cotton and such. Even the North American Warty Umber-Speckled Riding Beasts' warts look like they're bursting with candy-love.
i love it

I wouldn`t want to ride it! Nevertheless beautiful and it transports a sense of smell.

The ride would be bumpy, but think of the rewards- all the spun sugar wigs you could eat!

Hehehe, i am enjoying the beads strung through the hair in this piece and the last piece as well, hehe.
You have a very accurate sense of proportion and structure which i admire. But anyhoo, very lovely! Do the sugar-spun wigs come in different colors?

Only in pink and light blue.
I found a recipe for spun sugar in one of my vintage cookbooks, but it seems to involve wooden dowels drilled into the counter and the potential for molten sugar all over the floor. O_O
