I’ve been sculpting pieces for a fall-themed collaboration with Lush Little Landscapes, and this week I finished a selection of yummy pumpkin-y desserts and a pumpkin-carving scene, the latter of which I’d never sculpted before.

For the desserts, I made a moist pumpkin pound cake topped with caramel sauce and crushed pecans, soft pumpkin cookies with cinnamon-nutmeg icing, pumpkin cupcakes topped with white chocolate buttercream and marzipan candies, and a trio of caramel apples.

For the pumpkin carving scene, I sculpted three intact pumpkins in various shades of orange, and then I made my first hollowed out jack o’ lantern, which was a bit of a challenge! Once I was on a roll, though, I decided to go to town with the pumpkin guts and seeds, which of course meant that I had to make a miniature newspaper as well.

I photographed the entire pumpkin sculpting process, and I’ll be creating a short miniatures tutorial next month so you can make your own for tiny Halloween scenes.
