Cocoa Butter

1023 / AF-60

Cocoa Butter is a light neutral with a pink undertone and low chroma. With an LRV of 70.71, it reads bright and soft in most lighting. It fits bedrooms, living rooms, or ceilings where a warm off-white is preferred.

White Dove and Swiss Coffee keep a warm neutral scheme. Gentleman's Gray or Hale Navy add contrast without shifting the palette cool.

Cocoa Butter in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
