Cake Batter

CSP-215

Cake Batter is a warm off-white with creamy yellow undertones. Its LRV of 73.71 makes it light and reflective without reading stark. It is suitable for kitchens, bedrooms, or hallways where a warm white is desired.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Simply White for tonal whites. Quiet Moments, Soft Fern, or Hale Navy provide muted color or contrast. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
