Cake iced with dark chocolate buttercream. Scroll work is buttercream. Leaves are fondant mixed with tylose powder. I used a real maple leaf as a veiner (after I washed it with soap and water -- I tried it with a piece of plastic wrap in between but was not getting good veining).

It's very nice & looks delicious. You are a very talented cake artist. I don't get many requests for cakes along these lines. Most of the requests I get are for children's bd cakes, which they always have a certain character theme. Or big kids bd cakes like my 37 yr old nephew who wanted a "Star Wars" bd cake...lol. The closest I've come to making a "flower" these days was the zebra baby shower cake I made last month and all it had was jungle leaves & grass...lol. I made some buttercream roses for my youngest brother's wedding cake but that was back in 1986. I don't know, maybe making children's bd cakes is my destiny...lol
Thank you. I had always wanted to do an autumn wedding cake. I was so excited when this customer called.
Very nice work
