champagne is a light ivory color, which shouldn't be hard to duplicate. If it's pink champagne, add a teeny tiny touch of light pink color.

I would use ivory also. If you need it a bit darker then add a touch of brown.

I concur use ivory very sparingly. It doesn't need alot to make the correct color.

If it's buttercream, you can simply use brown vanilla instead of clear and that will give you your ivory color without adding food coloring.
