A warming rich brown hue, experts state Mocha Mousse imbues tones of cacao, chocolate and coffee and appeals to a desire for comfort.

From New York and London to Shanghai and Mumbai, the colour expert will share public spaces and colour events to make the Pantone Colour of Year 2025 accessible.

Executive director of Pantone Colour Institute Leatrice Eiseman commented on the hue: “Underpinned by our desire for every day pleasures, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse expresses a level of thoughtful indulgence.

 “Sophisticated and lush, yet at the same time an unpretentious classic, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse, extends our perceptions of the browns from being humble and grounded to embrace aspirational and luxe.

“Infused with subtle elegance and earthy refinement, Pantone E 17-1230 Mocha Mousse presents a discrete and tasteful touch of glamour.

“A flavourful brown shade, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse envelopes us with its sensorial warmth.”

Reflecting a growing movement to align with the natural world, Mocha Mousse balances modernity and “timeless” beauty.

Vice president of the Pantone Colour Institute Laurie Pressman added: “The everlasting search for harmony filters through into every aspect of our lives including our relationships, the work we do, our social connections and the natural environment that surrounds us.

“Harmony brings feelings of contentment, inspiring a positive state of inner peace, calm, and balance as well as being tuned in with the world around us.

“Harmony embraces a culture of connection and unity as well as the synthesis of our mental, spiritual and physical well-being.”

Mocha Mousse follows on from the Peach Fuzz

“With that in mind, for Pantone Colour of the Year 2025 we look to a colour that progresses our embrace of the feeling of our Pantone Colour of the Year, Pantone 13-1023 Peach Fuzz into another dimension, extending further into our desire for comfort, and the indulgence of simple pleasures that we can gift and share with others.”
