Oh man, well fiberpuppy does felted items, maybe you could ask her if that's something she could do for you. I've been contemplating doing food items lately, just because I could put them together in baskets for kitchen decor and that would fit in with what I already do. I never thought about felting them but it's always a possibility, it's just that at this point I really can't go out and buy what I would need to do that kind of item. I also wanted to do it to give them to my 3 y/o to play with since she really likes playing with the mini shopping carts.

I think a lot of the felt food you see on Etsy is also just made from high quality sheets of felt. Like you'd buy at Michaels, but better. There are places to order that from, including Etsy supplies sellers.
