The Cameo is a cultivar of apple discovered by chance by the Caudle family in a Dryden Washington orchard in 1987. Its parentage is uncertain; it may be a cross between a Red Delicious and a Golden Delicious since it was found near orchards of those fruits; it also appears similar to the original Delicious cultivar. It is bright red striped over creamy orange firm and crisp with an aromatic flavor.
