Valspar

Marshmallow Cocoa

8004-10C

Marshmallow Cocoa is a soft peach-beige with a creamy cocoa undertone. It feels comforting. The color suits bedrooms, sitting rooms, or hallways that need warmth without a heavy tan.

On large walls, it may show more pink than the name suggests. Use it beside warm white trim or light oak. Gray tile needs testing because the peach side can stand out.

Marshmallow Cocoa 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.
