Benjamin Moore

Creamy Custard

1145

Creamy Custard by Benjamin Moore is a mid-tone neutral with blended orange and yellow undertones that give it a warm, slightly rich appearance. It registers an LRV of 44.9, which places it in the medium-reflectance range, noticeably deeper than most off-whites or light beiges. The color reads as a saturated warm tan rather than a pale cream.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's Lenox Tan, Chestertown Buff, Hale Navy, Atrium White, and Ballet White. It is appropriate for kitchens, living rooms, and dining spaces where a grounded warmth is needed.
