I need to know what most people use in fondant coloring to make Cafe u lae (sp) color? Or that "champagne" light tan coloring?
Thanks for any help you can give!

I use Wilton Copper (Light Skin Tone) gel. I use this color on "Sahara" roses which have a champagne tint with pink hips. Doesn't take much - which is not always the case with Wilton colors icon_smile.gif

I agree with kpcrash, for cafe au lait, copper light skin tone should work.

Good Luck!
