Greetings everyone.
 
Has anyone out there ever displayed beeswax in a competition?
I decided to enter some of mine in the Michigan State Fair this year
(just for fun) and need to come up with some
ideas for a smart display of 15# of wax for the judges.
 
I have been told that someone previously made a really nice wax
pineapple for display and impressed everyone.
This is supposed to be a quality competition and I just thought I'd
mold some in bread pans.
This might be OK but definitely lacks pizzaz.
I certainly don't have a giant pineapple mold but want to be a little
bit original.
 
I don't have any molds except some candle molds and will have to
make/buy($$)/scrounge for something more suitable.
I've opened my big mouth and committed myself and now I'd just like to
come up with a "good effort" display.
 
Other than cleanliness and color, I'm also not too sure what they're
looking for.
 
Any suggestions from experience will be appreciated!
