Arizona Paint Supply

Dunn‑Edwards color · mixed in Benjamin Moore

Almond Cookie DE5374

Benjamin Moore already has the formula for Almond Cookie, so we mix the exact color at our North Scottsdale counter, in the line the surface needs. Same color, better paint. If you’d rather choose one of Benjamin Moore’s own colors, the five closest are below. Almond Cookie is currently approved in 3 Arizona HOA schemes we track.

About this color

  • Light
  • Saturated
  • Yellow / gold
Recommended surfaces
  • — Interior walls and ceilings
  • — Interior cabinet bodies
  • — Interior trim on deeper-toned walls
  • — Exterior body where no city limit applies (too light for the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley limits)

Sheen: Matte or eggshell on walls; satin on trim, semi-gloss on doors. Higher sheens on walls amplify stucco texture and roller marks. Flat on exterior stucco.

DE5374 Almond Cookie is a light, saturated yellow (LRV ≈ 57). Light colors reflect heat well and read clean on stucco, which makes them strong choices for Arizona homes outside overlay zones and HOAs. Inside Scottsdale's ESL or Foothills Overlay or Paradise Valley's Hillside District, this LRV is above the body cap (35% in ESL, 38% in PV Hillside, 40% in Foothills), and many desert-aesthetic HOAs set their own limit; check your community before choosing it for an exterior body.

Which Benjamin Moore line?

Aura Exterior or Regal Select Exterior, in soft gloss

Front doors and shutters take the most direct sun and the most handling, and soft gloss is the finish we put on them. A deep or saturated color is what fades first, so on a door that faces west or south we reach for Aura Exterior, which locks the color into the film. On a shaded entry, Regal Select Exterior holds it well. Bring the Benjamin Moore code from any of the five swatches above and we’ll mix that exact color at the counter.
