Just wondering if anyone had a quick method to do free standing leaf trees for me to add into some landscaping for a building cake I am doing.
Any advice would be great!
Make green rice crispy treats. I've seen it used for wreaths, garland and trees.
I made a large tree this way but you can do smaller ones as well.
I also had to really compact the treats so they did'nt fall ff because the tree was so big but for smaller ones you can leave the treats a little more loose.
Make the trunk out of a wooden skewer and gumpaste and add some rice crispies on top. They look just like leaves.
Just add green coloring to the melted marshmallows .
HTH.
Use wooden dowel and floral wire to help make a support and then cover with fondant.
or if you don't need a 3D tree, you can do 2D by doing cut outs from gum paste or chocolate and making a base for them to be attached to and stand up.
HTH
