If i use chocolate butter cream under a light colored fondant will the brown color show or bleed through? Do i need to use a darker color vs a white or pale pastel if im using chocolate? Thanks everyone!!

Someone answered here that you can. I haven't tried it. If you were to do that you might roll it out a little thicker than usual.

I do it all the time and it is fine - doesn't show at all. I use Satin Ice rolled to about 1/8".

I have done it a few times and never had a problem - just don't roll the icing too thin so that it cracks on the edges.
