Cotton Candy Color Palette
Cotton Candy is a pastel and cool color palette of 5 colors: Thistle (#cdb4db), Bubblegum (#ffc8dd), Light Pink (#ffafcc), Powder Blue (#bde0fe) and Light Sky Blue (#a2d2ff). Its dominant hue is pink.
The darkest color, Thistle, on the lightest, Powder Blue, gives a 1.36:1 contrast ratio — too low for text, so pair it with white or black. No pair in it passes AA for normal text, so use it for fills and accents. Light Pink (#ffafcc) is its most saturated color and a natural choice for buttons and links.
