Orange cayenne peppers are a hybrid variety of chili pepper that are larger and hotter than standard cayenne peppers, with a more vibrant color and smooth skin: 

Orange cayenne peppers are long, slender, and conical, with a pointed tip. They are smooth and glossy, and turn from dark green to bright orange as they ripen. 

Orange cayenne peppers have a fruity and citrusy flavor, and an intense heat that dissipates quickly. They can range from 30,000–50,000 units on the Scoville scale, which is 5–10 times hotter than a jalapeño. 

Orange cayenne peppers can be eaten fresh or cooked, and can be used in salads, salsas, soups, or with chicken or pork. They can also be dried and sprinkled over meats, stews, and rice dishes.

A striking heirloom chili known for its dramatic color change, the Buena Mulata pepper matures from deep purple to pink, orange, and finally bright red. Slender and slightly curved, it grows 5–7 inches long with a smooth, glossy skin. The flavor is mildly smoky with a touch of sweetness, making it excellent for sauces, drying, or fresh use.

Scoville Heat Units (SHU): 30,000 – 50,000 SHU

Comparable to cayenne-level heat—medium-hot with a noticeable kick but still very usable in cooking.

In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light, and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7-21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30” apart or into large 5-gallon containers. Harvest chiles when they are yellowish-orange.

Believed to be derived from ornamental Capsicum annuum breeding lines, with strong influence from Asian chili varieties. While not tied to a single traditional region, it is commonly associated with ornamental pepper development programs and is popular among growers in Asia and North America.

Great for ornamental display, fresh salsas, drying into flakes or powder, and adding color and heat to dishes.
