Harmonia axyridis can range in color from red-orange to dull cream.
Notes on verification
Well-documented polymorphism in entomological literature; multiple independent sources (Wikipedia, MSU, Purdue extension) confirm wide color range, though exact term 'dull cream' is a paraphrase of typically 'pale yellow' descriptions.
