#F9D857 Hex Color

Because of its intense brightness, Lemon Zest works best as an accent color for call-to-action buttons or small alerts rather than large backgrounds. Pair it with charcoal or deep navy text to ensure high readability and visual balance.

Lemon Zest is a very light yellow, meaning it will likely fail WCAG contrast standards if used as a background for white text. Always use black or very dark charcoal text over this shade to maintain accessibility and clear legibility.
