I have these in my notes, but I have never tried them out. Did you search these message boards? I bet you'd have luck there.

Using Wilton Colors:
FLESH Add just an extremely small touch of Copper to white icing. Ivory can also be used. Light pink with a small amount of brown.

Using ChefMaster Colors:
Skin tone - 12 parts orange & 4 parts Bakers Rose & 1 part Royal Blue

Other color mixing suggestions:
Flesh - Red and Green in white buttercream icon_confused.gif

Lemoncurd is correct about the copper... I've had excellent results using a small amount of Wilton's copper color for coloring fondant and buttercream. My baby in the clouds cake on my website has an infant made using just a small amount of copper without any help from a second or third color. icon_lol.gif
