I'm trying to make a naughty cake! The women's breast for a birthday party and I don't really know what colors to use for the skin tone color. Can anyone help me!

Thank you

For light skin tones, I was told to use just the slightest bit of copper color. Sounds weird but works - see my pics for pirate cupcakes as an example. As Florimbo said - you can add brown for darker tones.

I do the same as awolf - just use a tiny bit if Wilton copper.

I use copper but you have to be very careful because if you add to much it looks like your person got a really bad sun burn. If you do add to much and the color is to dark try Wilton white-white to calm the color. hope this helps
