Pumpkin Pie

Toasty, muted amber-gold for softer accents
About Pumpkin Pie
Pumpkin Pie looks like the moment orange-yellow sauce catches the light on a spoon, then calms down. Compared to Coffee Whip, it's a step cleaner and less brown-dusted. Compared to Holland Tulip, it stays warmer and more saturated, not petal-soft. And compared to Nuclear Mango, it's not as punchy or fruit-bright, so it feels more like baked color than high-output signal.
I use it when I need approachable warmth that still reads distinctly yellow, especially for hospitality dashboards, restaurant apps, and food brand UI where you want appetite without the "traffic-orange" effect. It also works well in e-commerce media for secondary CTAs and product callouts when the rest of the layout is cream or light grays, because it anchors the composition without shouting.
If you put it next to very cool grays, it can lean a touch more amber. Test it against your actual header and image backgrounds so it doesn't drift toward tan on lighter screens.
