Method
1. To begin with, divide the orange fondant into three portions of

10 g each.
2. Now make a smooth ball out of all three portions. You can use

corn flour if the fondant is sticking to your hands.

3. To give the pumpkin its shape, flatten the ball a little bit from

both sides and then, using a xacto knife, make markings on the

pumpkin.
4. Once the marking is done, use a toothpick to enhance the

markings to create a depression.

5. For the stalk, take a small piece of green fondant and shape it in

the form of a teardrop.

6. Flatten the broad end of the fondant between your fingers so

that it looks like a witch's hat at the end.

7. Now place it on the counter, and using a small round nozzle, cut

it out to make it look like a stalk. Pinch them a bit to give them a

realistic look.
8. Apply water at the bottom of the stalk and on the top of the

pumpkin, and place the stalk on it.

9. Lastly take some brown powder color and brush it on top of the

stalk.
