\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adding the final touches to the leaves can be made with fondant tools, or even toothpicks. \u00a0Trace the lines\/veins of the leaves (or where they would be) in order to have a more realist appearance. \u00a0If you are able to dry them in a round or tubular shape, the realism will be more so. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Happy Baking!
