Death!
Gum paste leaves, painted and then dusted with gold dust
Our assignment was a two-tier wedding/special occasion cake. I didn't think I would have time to do this, but I went for it anyway. I hand cut almost every gum paste leaf (because I wanted them to be unique and stylized), I used a food marker to draw (free hand) every tree and picture on the fondant and then used a paint brush to apply a mixture of gold, orange, and brown coloring powder. Also, the curly branches are gum paste too.
And not that it matters, but it was a lemon cake with key lime creme anglaise buttercream, and raspberry filling.
