What color is Benjamin Moore Sweet Taffy?
Benjamin Moore Sweet Taffy 2086-60 is a light, candy-pink shade with a soft blush cast and a clear warm undertone. Its pale value keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the pink remains noticeable rather than fading into a neutral. In bright daylight, Sweet Taffy reads fresh and creamy; at night, warmer bulbs can bring out its peachier side. It suits a child’s room, powder room, dressing area, or a playful accent wall, especially alongside crisp white trim. Pair it with pale oak, brass hardware, white marble, or muted sage accents for contrast that keeps the pink from feeling overly sweet.

LRV of Sweet Taffy
Sweet Taffy has an LRV of 66.66% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 66.66%, 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.
