Abstract

Chocolate is a rich, warm brown-orange, rgb(210, 105, 30) at hex #D2691E. Its high red channel, mid green, and low blue produce a 24-degree hue held at high saturation and reduced brightness — the color of its namesake confection. Part of the extended CSS3 named colors, chocolate reads as a saturated dark orange rather than a neutral brown, giving it more warmth and life than an earthier tone. It works well for cozy, natural, and food-oriented palettes where a deep, appetizing warmth is wanted. Sharing its 24-degree hue with a range of warm browns, it is distinguished by its higher saturation, and it pairs readily with creams and off-whites in food and lifestyle palettes.
