Julia, I like June’s suggestion to use cocoa, I am going to try it out myself next time (thanks June) but the first time I used black fondant and of course used cornstarch and left marks, and I had many suggections, from water to alcohol, but what worked well at that time is dabbing it with shortening (trex) and that removed the marks beautifully but left a shiny finish and you have to leave it to dry out too!! This is the cake:
