Varieties of the Crunchino group belong to the pointed sweet pepper type. The fruits are distinguished by a characteristic ribbed, often twisted shape, thin skin, and a unique texture reminiscent of an apple. The breeding program allows for the production of red, yellow, orange, brown, and caramel-colored fruits.
This produce is positioned as snack pepper intended for fresh consumption, use in salads, grilling, and roasting. The fruits are distinguished by increased sweetness and a low seed count. The breeder's documentation for individual lines of the series notes the presence of resistance to tobacco mosaic virus.
The designation OR.4546 is a technical breeding number referring to one of the varieties within this group, specifically peppers with orange fruits.
