Clove and Candied Peel Color Palette
Deep clove browns and roasted spice tones run up into marmalade orange, honey, and pale marzipan cream, with a few soft bay-leaf greens to break the warmth. The dark browns hold lettering well and the creams make quiet backgrounds for recipe cards, gift tags, and baking illustrations. Good for a Christmas look that skips the usual red and green.
