I have ivory, to shades of pink, yellow, orange, red. I am doing a baby shower cake, and need a baby face. Just thought I would try and make my own peach/fleshtone, instead of going and buying it.

I have mixed ivory with creamy peach and got great results. Even a little brown helps.

Hope that helped.

I used MMf and added Wilton's Ivory. It worked beautifully and it didnt take very much either.

I have used ivory and added a pinpoint of pink and yellow to get light skin...if you have brown, it would help also with toning down the colors, just a dot though.

I've used peach mixed with brown...and I've used a little copper to get that color - my baby on the baby shower cake was made with copper.

I used Americolor ivory last night, and it worked well for me.

I add a very tiny amount of chocolate frosting to my white buttercream.
