Related terms: light yellow
A pale yellow facade color between yellow and white but darker than cream, represented by hex triplet FFFEAB.
Butter is a pale shade of yellow, darker than cream but lighter than other shades of yellow. It is approximately halfway between yellow and white. It is a common shade for painted facades.
Hex triplet: FFFEAB
Butter retains more visible yellow than the paler cream. Its common use in paint does not require a painted surface. The hex triplet is a comparison sample for a range of similar facade colors, rather than an exact-match requirement.
