Marsupilami

Acid-yellow green for sharp highlights, not soft cream
About Marsupilami
Marsupilami is the yellow you notice on a sunny afternoon when the light hits a glossy toy. It feels extra light and aggressively clean, but it's not the soft, cloud-filtered warmth of Golden Ginkgo. Compared to Dorn Yellow, it keeps its edge and brightness without turning into that daylight-softened lemon highlight.
I use it when the UI needs a highlight that reads as the one you reach for in a crowded green interface: featured product callouts in retail and D2C storefronts, section tags in editorial sites, and bright map landmarks in logistics or ride-share screens. It also holds up in lifestyle and food thumbnails when other elements are doing the heavy lifting and you just need the label to pop forward.
Quirk: because it's so close to pure yellow, it can feel a bit more "signal" than "friendly" next to warm creams, so I prefer it with cooler off-whites or balanced green neutrals to keep it from looking flat.
