Does anyone have a formula for colors that would match a depression era pink color?
I've been asked to make the icing match this color for a bridal shower.  I"m thinking soft pink with a touch of copper... ?
Any advice would be helpful.

Thank you.

that looks like mauve, which is kind of pink/red, like a very, very pastel burgundy color

another way to go is that unfortunately named color 'flesh' -- would be perfect

but if i was mixing that -- i would do pink yellow and brown -- and i would add brown icing -- not brown color --use a dollop that's already been mixed to tone it down -- brown smokifies other colors --

I dunno, K8.  Any shade of red with yellow will make orange. This does not look orangie.

I vote a pale pink with a touch of brown.

it's a smokey peach -- peach is pink and yellow -- smoke is brown 

that's how i would get it -- there's more than one way of course

To me it looks more smokey rose than smokey peach. I don't see the orange, looks more pink to me.

I think it is either the raspberry or the terracotta below. I put the pics side by side, and to me it looks closer to the raspberry.
