Somewhere between softened butter and candle wax, this pale yellow carries a faint green undertone. #efedbb is very unsaturated and light, so it reads warm and mellow rather than bright. It works as a large background for spring layouts or minimal design, and it flatters olive and charcoal accents. Black text hits about 17.5:1 contrast on it. Just keep it away from pure white, which drains it.
