Valspar

Estate Vanilla

3004-8C

Estate Vanilla is a bright vanilla cream with a gentle golden base. It warms quickly. This color suits kitchens, hallways, or bedrooms with older trim and warm floors.

It is lighter than a typical beige but not a true white. Lean on antique brass or butcher block for relief. Cool marble can make the cream look yellower, so test right against the stone.

Estate Vanilla 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.
