Hi!

Sorry if this has been asked before - I did a search and couldn't find the answer.

I am trying to make a Louis Vuitton purse and the brown that I have (chocolate brown) is too red. What would I need to do to make my fondant less red? Thanks!!

Oh, and if anybody has any great tips for making a LV purse cake (like making the zippers, handles, etc), I would REALLY appreciate them!!

Thanks!!

The only thing I have found to work is by adding cocoa powder to buttercream. I'm not sure if this will work with fondant. Maybe you need to keep adding brown color, americolors work the best in my opinion. Hope you find your answer.

A bit of "green" will balance out the red in your brown.

Yes, add a little green. Green is red's complimentary color and will dull the redness in the brown color.

Thank you!!
