MINI PUMPKIN SPICE CAKES WITH ORANGE GLAZE



FOR THE CAKE:
1 (18.25 ounce) box spice cake mix, Betty Crocker SuperMoist
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

FOR THE ORANGE GLAZE:
2/3 cup heavy (whipping) cream
1 bag (12-ounce) premier white morsels, Nestl
Red and yellow food coloring

FOR THE MARZIPAN STEMS AND LEAVES:
1 (7 ounce) package marzipan, Odense
Green food coloring

SPECIAL EQUIPMENT:
Disposable latex gloves
Leaf-shaped cookie cutter

CAKE PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Oil and flour 8 mini Bundt pans.

Combine cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in large bowl. Beat for 2 minutes, or until well blended. Divide batter equally among prepared pans.

Bake for 20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted near center of cakes comes out clean. Cool cakes in pans on cooling racks for 15 minutes. Invert cakes onto cooling rack and cool completely. Set cooling rack atop baking sheet.

TO MAKE THE ORANGE GLAZE:
Heat heavy cream in small saucepan over medium heat until bubbles appear; remove from heat. Add white morsels and stir until melted and smooth. Stir in food colorings, 1 drop at a time, until desired color is achieved.

Drizzle glaze over cakes. Refrigerate cakes for 10 minutes, or until glaze is firm. Cover and reserve any remaining glaze

TO MAKE THE MARZIPAN STEMS AND LEAVES:
Place marzipan in medium bowl. Using latex gloves, knead food coloring, 1 drop at a time, into marzipan until desired color is achieved.

Divide marzipan into 2 equal pieces. Roll 1 marzipan piece into 12-inch-long log. Cut log crosswise into 8 equal pieces; set aside to use as stems.

Flatten remaining marzipan piece, then place between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Using rolling pin, roll out marzipan to 1/4-inch thickness. Using leaf-shaped cookie cutter or small sharp knife, cut out 24 leaves

Decorate cakes with marzipan stems and leaves. Rewarm reserved glaze. Serve cakes, passing glaze alongside
