Wondering if anyone has any experience with tinting fondant.  I am making fondant basketballs and not sure if i add brown to orange or orange to brown?  Id appreciate any input!

I was taught in Jr. High School art class always add the darker to the lighter in small amounts - brown to orange.

Brown to orange, but little at a time. Then you can take a sieve and make the texture of the basketball by pressing on the fondant. I did it for a football.
