I made the leaves a week ahead out of fondant, using leaf cutters and silicon molds to get the vein effect. I then laid them out on crumpled foil to dry so they would have a more natural look. The little apples and acorns I just hand shaped out of fondant mixed with a little gumpaste.
One thing I've discovered is that for black and red fondant I really like to use the premade Satin Ice. When I make homemade red fondant it tends to be sticky from the amount of coloring I have to add, whereas the Satin Ice has a great texture and flavor.
