Benjamin Moore

Sugarcane

1185

Sugarcane is a very light pink with subtle peach undertones and low saturation. With an LRV of 72.55, it reflects light efficiently while still reading as a color rather than white. It is suitable for bedrooms, nurseries, and spaces requiring a gentle tone.

The undertone stays warm and controlled. Sugarcane pairs well with Benjamin Moore White Heron and Chantilly Lace, while Hale Navy and Chelsea Gray add depth. Coral Gables and Shaker Beige support related warm palettes.

Sugarcane 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.
