I found rainbow carrots at Trader Joe's, but you can usually find them at your local grocery store or produce store. If you can't find them, you can use traditional orange carrots instead. Initially, I tried using very large carrots. I found that the thinner ones (not pencil thin) worked better than the fat ones.
