What color do I need to use to ahieve a "flesh" (skin) color? I have all the basic Wilton colors and the basic set of Americolors. Is there a "flesh" color that I need to purchase?

I know Wilton coppertone (a small amount) is what they recommend for flesh color. You can also use peach with ivory.

I use Ivory Wilton Paste Color for 'flesh' - it turns out really nice. I have no preference beteween Wilton or Ameri Color - just that I have the Wilton one on hand.

I recently used Americolor's copper and was shocked at how much it looked like flesh. Check out the bulldozer dude in my photos and you can see how the color looks. It was almost freaky when I would hold the chunk of flesh colored fondant in my hand - it looked real!
