Once upon a time there was a very colourful witch. She was a stereotypical witch in that she lived alone in a #FFFFFF house with a #000000 cat in the middle of a forest called #DEB887. For breakfast she ate #FFEFD5 and when hard at work she liked to nibble on a #FFEBCD.
As she was a witch she decided today was a good day to cast a spell. So, she went to her cauldron and threw in a feather from her pet duck and a glass of her favourite liqueur along with whatever was left in there from yesterday, waved her wand (a #EEE8AA) and with a puff of #F5F5F5 she made a ???

As she was a witch she decided today was a good day to cast a spell.

To solve the puzzle you needed to take the hex codes for TEAL (the pet duck, #008080) and CHARTREUSE (the favourite liqueur, #7FFF00) and put them into the colour-mixing cauldron. This creates the color #F0FFF0 which is HONEYDEW.
