If I'm going to be icing the cake in green, do I need to crumb coat with green icing as well? Or can I crumb coat in white?

Thanks,
Christine

I'm sure it's easier to crumb coat in the same color as the top coat but I do white crumb coats all the time and then the final frosting in another color and it works out just fine.
