Not quite white and not quite green, #caceca is a pale grey with a faint cool cast. Its high lightness and near-zero saturation give it a washed, airy feel that suits minimal layouts and UI backgrounds. Black text reads clearly on it at about 13.2:1 contrast, so it holds up behind small type. Next to pure white it can look faded, so anchor it with deeper tones like slate or charcoal.
