Hi all. 
 
One of the things I first notice in a pepper is the color. And I like to have many different colours in my grow tent :D 
However, as things have progressed, it seems I only have yellow, orange and red varieties.
 
So I started a few peppers up 1 month ago, and now it look something like this:
 
Red: 7pot primo, jalapeno
Orange: Bahamian goat. New is Orange spice a jalapeño variety, Jamy and orange thai hot. 
Yellow: Lemon drop
 White: New: Murupi Amarela
 
So what are your favourite peppers sorted by color? I have been looking for a chocolate variety for some time now :D

If it is all about the eye candy, then Chinese 5 Color might be for you. The peppers are a little bland IMO, but the plant is extremely colorful when fruiting.
 
Also, variegated varieties like Fish pepper can look striking even when they are not fruiting.
 
I tend to think about it by color and heat bracket. So if I'm thinking reds, i tend to think like a favorite mild red (not sure yet), a favorite medium red (Jalapeño Zapotec), a favorite hot red (Safi?), a favorite light super (Naga Morich), and a favorite heavyweight super (7Pot Brainstrain)... A red for each purpose...
 
I'll list some, with no special regards ti heat level.

Red: Moruga Scorpion, 7 Pot Primo, Bih Jolokia, Aleppo, Jalapeno, Shishito.

Brown: Douglah, BBM, Chocolate Brain Strain, Jamaican Hot Chocolate, Chocolate Bhut Jolokia.

Yellow: Yellow Brainstrain ànd Moruga, Fatalii, Aji Jobito.

Peach: Bhut Jolokia Peach, Aji Melocoton, Peach Congo.

Orange: Sherwood's Carbonero, Freeport Scotch Bonnet, Bulgarian Carrot.

Mustard: BMM

Caramel: Bhut Jolokia Caramel

So many recommendations :D A shame I can't pick them all! I have looked on WHP and found some of your suggestions.

Could this be good for hot sauce and powder? Never tried a bhut before :) 
 
Also keep them coming, im sure other people like to read suggestions before we start new growth in a few months :)

I love the flavour of the Bhut, so Yes, I would strongly recommend It to you.
Some find the Bhut's taste a Little floral, so if you're looking for something more fruity I'd stay on 7 Pots.

Yes, I think those should be very good for sauce and powder. Chocolate Bhuts don't usually taste floral to me (sometimes the red Bhuts can be a bit floral though), but if sauce and powder is your intended use, any floralness should be less noticeable anyway. Any floral taste is usually the most obvious when eating fresh pods. 
 
The Chocolate Bhuts I grew took about 3 weeks to germinate, so be prepared to be a little patient when germinating seeds for these.
 
As far as "chocolates" I've been growing the Douglah and Jamaican Hot Chocolate. The Douglah is just ridiculous in heat level. I like it, but it's hot. That Jamaican is a great little pepper. It's nice and smooth like a red Savina, even similarly shaped. But the flavor is really pleasant.
 
Yellow: El Scorponero
Red: El Scorponero
Orange: El Scorponero
White: white bullet hab
Brown: scotch bonnet cappuccino
Lots of colors: aji omni color

Nothing that pale yet. One the D3 Goat phenos is almost there. A very pale yellow. Would love a white el scorponero though.
