I am pretty new to this site and have really been inspired to do more cake decorating. I want to do a fall themed cake for a party next week. I have only done cake mix cakes and buttercream icing before. I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions for a good cake and filling to try. I want to get outside my box and try new things. I also think I might like to try and experiment with MMF. Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.

For a fall cake, a pumkin cake with a cream cheese filling would be fantastic!
how about doing a spice cake......or even a yellow cake but instead of adding water add some pumpkin spice coffee creamer to the mix........and maybe you can make a pumpkin filling.....by mixing a lg. can of pumpkin (not pie filling) a box of butterscotch pudding, a box of vanilla pudding, and 2 cups of milk mix it all together and then add in pumpkin pie spice to taste.....it's yummy....almost like a pumpkin pudding! Maybe even make a buttercream and add a couple pinches of cinnamon to it for the frosting on the cake.....that just screams fall to me!
My fave fall cake is a spice cake with caramel apple filling and cinnamon buttercream. For the filling, take a can of sweetened condensed milk, pour it into a small sauce pan and cook on low for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, peel and slice an apple then cook it in boiling water with a splash of lemon juice for about 10 mins. Remove the apple slices from the water and lay out on paper towels to cool and dry for a bit. Chop up the apples and mix in with the caramel. Yum! As for the buttercream, I just added a few tsp. of cinnamon to my usual recipe. Yum!
