Cara Cara Oranges — California, Size 56

Cara Cara oranges are the refined choice when standard navels won't cut it — their blush-pink flesh is lower in acid and higher in sweetness, with a subtle hint of cherry and rose that makes them stand out in both flavor and presentation. Seedless and easy to segment cleanly.

Best for: fresh citrus salads, breakfast and brunch menus, juicing programs, cocktail and mocktail bases, pastry garnishes, hotel buffet fruit displays

What makes Cara Cara different: Unlike standard navels, Cara Cara oranges are a natural crossbreed of Washington navel and Brazilian Bahia navel — the blush-pink flesh comes from lycopene, the same antioxidant in tomatoes. Lower acid, higher Brix, richer complexity. They photograph beautifully and hold their color even after segmenting.

Where they shine: Hotel breakfast buffets, tasting menus, high-end juice programs, and anywhere you want citrus that earns a second look. Segment cleanly for a composed plate or halve them for a dramatic display.
