What color is Behr Melted Marshmallow?
Behr Melted Marshmallow P200-1 is a very light, creamy peach with a soft blush of orange warmth. Its pale depth keeps it airy on broad walls, while the #fee2cc color value gives it more warmth than a plain ivory or off-white. In daylight, Melted Marshmallow can read as a gentle peachy neutral; under warm bulbs, its apricot notes become more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms, and dining spaces where a light wall color should still have visible color. Pair it with warm white trim, light oak, woven natural fibers, muted terracotta, or dusty green accents.

LRV of Melted Marshmallow
Melted Marshmallow has an LRV of 80.52% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 80.52%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
