Benjamin Moore

Burnt Caramel

2167-10

Burnt Caramel is a warm orange with brown undertones. An LRV of 22.65 places it in the dark mid-tone range, so it absorbs light. It is suited to dining rooms, kitchens, or accent walls where a warm, saturated color is needed.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Simply White and White Dove to control contrast. Hale Navy, Forest Green, or Terra Cotta extend the palette with deeper or adjacent tones. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
