Caramel Sugar vs Thin Ice

Caramel SugarPPGvsThin IcePPGΔE 35.7 — Very different colors

Caramel Sugar and Thin Ice come from the same PPG collection. Hue-wise, Caramel Sugar belongs to the beige-pink family and Thin Ice to the grey family. The 41-point LRV gap — 70 for Thin Ice vs 29 for Caramel Sugar — means Thin Ice will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 35.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
