Sherman Oaks, Calif.-based Sunkist has established a website for consumers to enter the contest, dubbed “The Power Orange Challenge.” The deadline to submit a video is March 3.

- Cara caras are orange outside and pink inside;
- The fruit is seedless and easy to peel;
- It is a hybrid of navel oranges and not related to grapefruit;
- The fruit offers 150% of the recommended daily value of vitamin C; and

Cara caras are grown in California and Arizona.
