Fall cake for a benefit / auction. Pumpkin spice with cream cheese filling--topped with white chocolate ganache and cheesecake MFF. The leaves are gum paste and made to match the real leaves I pressed that were in my yard this fall. (I covered them with Press 'n' Seal.) The leaf rake is pastillage. I hope it brings its worth for it's for a worthy cause

Close up of gum paste leaves. I used real leaves from my yard which I pressed and put on the cake board. I tried to match the gorgeous colors they had this fall.

This Autumn's leaves were spectacular! I made the cake board from those collected from my yard and dried in a microwave flower press. I covered a foam core board with metallic gold tissue paper and fixed the leaves down with spray adhesive and food safe Press 'n' Seal. There are no artificial colors used. I hated to cover them up with the cake! Oh well. I matched the colors of the gum paste leaves to the actual leaves. No one would believe the colors if I didn't have the side by side comparison.
