Benjamin Moore

Cream Soda

1082 / CC-366

Cream Soda by Benjamin Moore is a warm tan with neutral undertones and a soft, muted quality. It has an LRV of 44.59, placing it in the mid-range for light reflectance, which gives it noticeable depth compared to lighter creams. The color leans toward a natural, earthy beige without strong yellow or pink pulls.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore's White Sand, Grant Beige, and Shaker Beige for a warm tonal scheme. Kendall Charcoal provides effective contrast, and Guilford Green introduces a grounded, complementary accent.

Cream Soda 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.
