Need Ideas For A Wedding Cake With Fall Leaves

Using wafer paper and airbrushing on color is the most natural (real) looking leaves one can get. You could get up to a 1/2 dozen leaves from one sheet. I'd just make maybe a dozen or 2 leaves and scatter them around. OR make a cascade of leaves like this: http://cdn.cakecentral.com/gallery/2015/03/37WgW8_fall-leaves-wedding_200x200.jpg http://cdn.cakecentral.com/gallery/2015/02/37Z73c_pollus-red-rose-swag_200x200.jpg

Yes, the last 3 aren't fall leaves but the design idea is what I was referring to :)
One can also make leaves from gumpaste or fondant somewhat like using wafer paper but I find those heavy and not as real looking.

Look at the cakes above and see if it inspires an "idea" for your cake. Quite often I will go to my gallery of saved favorites and combine elements from several cakes into "my" cake.
You can also enter the search term into the CakeCentral search box: autumn leaves
Here's one of my favorite, very elegant, brilliant autumn wedding designs:

for inexpensive -- i'd do something like this where you stripe the bag of buttercream --advance to 2:15
and i put orange, brown, green and red stripes of icing then fill with gold all in one bag -- so pretty so much fun so very inexpensive and cascade them or whatever -- i'd add tendrils too for contrast -- maybe a couple acorns --
but for a wedding cake i'd have my icing a little stiffer still on the loose side but i'd want the leaves to stand up more


This is one of my favorites I've been saving !
Sorry - I tried to copy the picture! And my type is covering up my pasted link!?! Grrrrrr
