Autumn Cake on Cake Central

I had to do a "fall" themed sheet cake. Kinda winged this one. Icing is buttercream; leaves are chocolate painted with wilton oil for candy melts and balls are fondant.

Thanks! I found some silk ones at Wal-Mart; washed them; and just piped the candy melts over them then pulled them apart when the melts were dry. Used the coloring you use to mix with the melts (oil based) to paint a mixture of yellow and red randomly. Easy and I like the way they turned out too.

The underside. The leaves were .99 and came in a pack of about 50....totally fabric; no plastic/wire.
