Looks like chocolate wafer cookies covered in fondant.

I think they are strips of gumpaste/mexican paste/flower paste cut so that the black ones are just longer than the pink then glued together and put on the cake. To achieve this you probably need a pasta machine so your paste is all the same thickness, and then cut with a wheel to exact lengths. Impressive, time consuming but not too hard I think. Best of luck and post your pic when done.
it looks like fondant, 2 different colors, i would definitely follow rowarsroont suggestions, pasta machine will help to make sure they all look even. you might want to add some tylose to the fondant, and let it dry for a day or so, so they all stand on their own like the picture
