What color is Dulux Sweet Fondant?

Dulux Sweet Fondant 10RR 60/197 is a light, clear pink with a noticeable rosy-red base and a soft blue-lilac cast. Its pale value keeps it airy on larger walls, while the color’s moderate saturation prevents it from reading as washed out. In bright daylight, Sweet Fondant can appear fresher and slightly cooler; under warm evening lighting, its pink warmth becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, and powder rooms, or can add color to a single wall in a neutral living space. Pair it with chalky whites, muted plum, soft grey, or pale wood for a composed interior, and use brushed nickel or chrome if you want to emphasize its cooler edge.
