I have used an iron which was too hot on a black and cream dress. The black from the dress has gone onto the cream and it will not come off. Is there anything I can use to remove the marks please?

Here is some advice from this website:www.reference.com/
It's hard to know if it will work because the mark isn't fresh and you didn't say what material your dress was made of.
As Judy said, you haven't specified the material or if the stain has been set for a while.
One of your options is to buy fabric paint, another (if you're good at sewing) is to replace the cream portion (with any colour you like).
The type of material means a lot in a question like this but I do not think you are describing scorch marks (?).
I would recommend you take this dress to a reliable dry cleaners and ask if there is anyway to remove this mark.
if you have actually managed to terminally scorch your dress, especially if you have a more synthetic fabric, there's not much you can do, unfortunately. But a dry cleaner and other fabric expert can provide ideas on what to do.
The dress is a synthetic fabric. I didn't scorch the dress with the iron. When I ironed it I ironed from black on the dress to the cream part & the iron must have been too hot & black transferred onto the cream part of the dress which is what I am unable to get off.
My mom always told me to iron them with a thin cloth over them Or you can actually buy an ironing cloth, I think - at least in the US). Just wash them again and iron them with a sheet over them or something.
