- Make leaf base strips also 2 days in advance. Use fondant roller with orange guide rings to roll out reserved coral fondant 1/8 in. thick. Use knife to cut one strip for large leaf cluster, 4 in. long x 1 1/4 in. wide. Cut one strip for small leaf cluster, 3 in. long x 1 in. wide. Cut out a V shape at one end. Let dry 24 hours.
- Make tiles also 2 days in advance. Use fondant roller with orange guide rings to roll out 5 1/4 oz. white fondant 1/8 in. thick. Use straight side of smallest (15/16 in.) and second smallest (1 5/16 in.) square cut-outs to cut 50 squares in each size. Place on cornstarch-dusted board. Let dry 24 hours.
Decorate tiles 1 day in advance. Prepare royal icing following recipe directions. Use medium consistency white royal icing in cut disposable decorating bag to pipe squiggle lines over tiles. Use damp brush to spread lines over tile to create a slightly bumpy texture. Let dry, about 4 hours. Reserve remaining royal icing.
Use brush and white/periwinkle blue Color Dust edible accents/lemon extract mixture to paint all tiles. Use brush and bronze/gold Pearl Dust edible accents/lemon extract mixture to paint sides and dab top of large tiles. Let dry, about 15 to 20 minutes. Reserve remaining blue and gold mixtures.
- Decorate leaves also 1 day in advance. Use brush and reserved gold mixture to paint edges of all leaves. Let dry, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Assemble leaf clusters on base strips also 1 day in advance. Chill base strips about 10 to 15 minutes for easier attaching of leaves. Melt orange Candy Melts candy according to package directions.
For large cluster, use melted candy in cut disposable decorating bag to attach one large leaf on top center of 4 in. x 1 1/4 in. base strip. Attach two large leaves angled on each side of first leaf. Hold for about 1 minute until set. Repeat to attach three more pairs of angled leaves to bottom of strip. Hold until set. Attach three additional pairs of angled large leaves between first pairs. Hold until set. Attach three large leaves vertically down center. Hold until set.
For small cluster, attach one medium leaf on top center of 3 in. x 1 in. strip and two medium leaves angled on each side of first leaf. Hold until set. Attach three pairs of angled small leaves between first pairs. Hold until set. Attach four medium leaves vertically down center. Hold until set.
Use melted orange candy to attach a lollipop stick to back of each base strip, leaving 2 in. extended at bottom to insert into cake. Trim as needed.
