'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 Red Delicious and Golden Delicious, since it was found near orchards of those fruits;[1] it also appears similar to the original Delicious cultivar. It has red skin with orange and yellow stripes; a dense texture; and a tart, crisp, and aromatic flavor.[2] Suitable for eating fresh, salads, and baking, it is among the top nine most grown apples in Washington state.[3]
