Benjamin Moore

Vanilla Milkshake

2141-70 / OC-59

Vanilla Milkshake is a soft, muted white from Benjamin Moore with gray undertones that distinguish it from warmer cream-based off-whites. Its LRV of 80.97 reflects substantial light while maintaining enough body to avoid looking flat. The cool-neutral cast gives it a slightly desaturated appearance that reads as quieter than pure white on walls or cabinetry.

It layers well with Stonington Gray and Gray Owl for a cool monochromatic scheme, and it provides a clean backdrop for deeper tones like charcoal or navy. Pale blues in the same collection complement its cool temperature.
