I am making a sheep cake for my daughters 1st birthday. I had planned on doing this the day before. I just read somewhere that as fondant sits the colors darken (when coloring it) So should I color it the day before I plan on making the cake so that I know I am getting the right colors?

Hi there, I would colour it the day before!

I always try to color mine the day before I am going to use it.
