Why it works and how to use it

Candy Corn is a monochromatic color palette tagged vibrant, warm, orange. All four colors sit within 11° of hue, so the scheme reads as one color explored across light and dark. Neither washed out nor loud, it adapts to most contexts. The overall temperature is warm.

The palette holds together thanks to its monochromatic hue relationship and a strong light-to-dark ladder (100% down to 11% lightness). A natural fit for websites, presentations and branding.

Background: White (#FFFFFF) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
Text: Raisin (#1B1B1B) on #FFFFFF gives 17.22:1, passing WCAG AAA.
Primary: Cantaloupe (#FF9F1C) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
Accent: Gold (#FFD23F) for highlights, badges and hover states.

3 of 6 color pairs pass WCAG AA (4.5:1); the strongest is White on Raisin at 17.22:1.
