Hi Katia...I made this cake last year...just for practice...So I am not 100% sure what I did!!! LOL I believe the bottom is 9" and the top tier is a 6" oval pan. I made a carrot cake with cream cheese/buttercream frosting. I think I made the leaves just by mxing some brown gel to green fondant and just blended until I got some mixed color. The pumpkins I used a 50/50 mix of fondant and gumpaste added orange gel just made round balls and used the curved edge of the ball tool to make the indents until the resembled pumpkins ;~) I did brush on some clear sparkle dust to give it the shine....
I had fun creating this cake and learn something with each one I do. Thanks for friending me and commenting on this cake. Have fun... and have a great holiday season!....

I was curious was size pans you used for this, did you add sparkle to the gumpaste to give the leaves that color? And how did you make pumpkins? thanks so much! cake is very nice!
