Kind regards,

I use the Americolor copper color - just a smidge at a time until the desired color. Before that I believe I went with a very, very light pink and added either orange or brown in very small amounts. But, I did buy the copper because it was a pain.

Sorry I couldn't help more - but copper seems to give the fleshy color without much mixing magic.

I use the Wilton copper color, a little at a time. It works very well.

i used a touch of chocolate brown on satin fondant and it gave me a very light skinned flesh. Definately not what i wanted (i wanted brown) but i got flesh. i wrapped it and saved it for later knowing i would need that color and not be able to reproduce.
