Does Black Fondant Turn Your Mouth Black?

The problem is they start with WHITE chocolate.
I have used Cal Java Sweet Inspirations, but have not tried the Choco Pan (both chocolate fondants)
I found that the the "chocolate fondants" do not color that mouth as much as the Satin Ice did - but still did some.
Since you have already ordered it, you may want to make a small cake, or cupcakes and send it home with customer to make a decision on whether she still wants to use Black. (with the option of a dark brown if she does not) When I tested it, I made sure that it sat on the buttercream crumb coat so that any interaction would occur similiar to what would happen on the final cake.
Good Luck -
I've always wondered about this myself. At my dd's bridal shower there were the darkest green leaves on each square serving of cake. I looked across the room at my mother in law, where she was chatting away, and her lips, tongue and teeth were forest green. I could hardly hold up my end of the conversation I was in after that. The hostess felt awful, but hey it happens. I just don't eat detail stuff of high color.
Another "warning" of black fondant. Not to be gross, but it will cause one to have an oddly green poo. I have kids, and they have eaten black fondant. You can think your child is sick if you did not know they ate it. I tried to put it as delicately as possible, but I have warned parents to not be too alarmed if that happens.

Thanks for telling us that. I'm glad that I know that I don't have to rush to the doctor with my son when he eats his cake with black fondant! 
I haven't had a problem with black fondant coloring mouths. Black bc, yes, but fondant, no.
Hmm....me either. leahs- do you color your own or used precolored?
When I read the question, Cotrno, You and I obviously had the same first thought! This "poo" trivia is best shared with customers, young and OLD!
