Use a little bit of Wilton's copper icing color.

I didn't have copper tone, so I have used a small touch of brown, or small touch of peach. They both have worked pretty good.

You could also use equal (very small) amounts of orange, yellow, and brown. Just a drop of each.

I use a tiny amount of chocolate. The frosting looks almost white. When I have used too much, even though in the icing bowl it looked perfect, it was always too dark on the cake.
