What color is Benjamin Moore Sweet Cream?
Benjamin Moore Sweet Cream CSP-935 is a very light, softly muted cream with a clear yellow-beige cast. Its pale depth keeps walls bright without reading as stark white, while the gentle warmth is most noticeable beside cooler whites or gray finishes. In daylight, Sweet Cream can appear airy and lightly buttery; warmer evening bulbs tend to draw out its richer golden notes. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, and bedrooms where a warm neutral backdrop is wanted, especially with natural oak, linen, woven textures, and matte brass. Pair it with soft clay accents, warm off-whites, or deep olive and charcoal details for contrast.

LRV of Sweet Cream
Sweet Cream has an LRV of 77.54% 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 77.54%, 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.
