Valspar

Freshly Baked

3008-10A

Freshly Baked is a soft beige with a biscuit-warm undertone. It feels familiar, but not flat. Its middle depth gives walls more presence than pale cream, which helps in hallways with warm floors or older trim.

It can also calm a kitchen with butcher block. If the room already has pink-beige tile, test a large board first. Similar undertones can get too sweet together.

Freshly Baked 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.
