I can not RAVE enough about the color FLESH. It is a power color from candy n cake. I believe it is a CK product so check your local cake store! I love it!!!!!!! A tiny bit will do a perfect light skin tone - a little bit more will do a nice beige - alit bit more will do an excellent skin tone for Dora!!! That is as dark as I have ever had to do! It is wonderful stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went to see a demonstrator and she is very famous, from Brazil - makes brides, forgotten her name. She uses a bad of orange with a tiny bit of green - sounds very odd but it did come out very flesh like.

Don't use the creamy peach...it turns out very VERY pink! I would stick to copper and use just a few drops at a time until you get the desired color.

I agree with Sparkie248... creamy peach turns very pinky.

I had to make a skin color for my little mermaid cake. I was going to use creamy peach for her skin color, but picked up the wrong piping bag. It was some icing I tinted with the Wilton Brown to a very pale brown. I think it turned out ok. I didn't realize it until I finished filling her in and am glad I made the mistake.
