falling leaves

These beautiful cupcakes are the ideal accompaniment to an autumnal party or bonfire night. The maple leaves are delicate yet easy to make, and add a real touch of style and class.

you will need

cupcakes baked in orange paper cases

buttercream of your choice

Japanese maple leaf cutters

maple leaf veiner (SK)

flower paste: golden brown

foam pad

ball tool

edible dusts in autumnal colours (reds, browns and oranges)

piping bag, coupler and large round tube

1 Smear white fat over your work board to stop the paste sticking, then very thinly roll out the flower pastes.

2 Cut out a leaf, turn it over and place on a foam pad. Take the ball tool and stroke around the edges of the each petal by pressing the tool half on the petal and half on the pad to soften the cut edge.

3 Place the leaf onto one side of the double veiner, place the other side on top and press firmly. Remove the leaf and place on scrunched-up paper towel in a life like shape to dry. Repeat.

4 Once dry, dust the leaves with a selection of red, brown, yellow and orange dusts. Set the dusts by very carefully passing each leaf through steam from a kettle.

5 Place the large round tube into a large piping bag and half fill with buttercream.

6 Pressure pipe the icing onto your cupcakes in the style of your choice.

7 Top each cupcake with one or more of the leaves.
