Hex color #eda355 graphic
A light, mellow orange with soft yellow undertones, #eda355 glows without shouting. Its medium saturation keeps it friendly rather than loud, which suits spring packaging, youth branding, and warm food menus. It works best as a supporting tone behind dark text, since black type reads at about 10:1 contrast on it. At large sizes it can flatten, so give it cream or charcoal neighbors for depth.
