Cremello is a color of horse consisting of a cream-colored body with a cream mane and tail. It is the result of double dilution on a red base coat. The horse has pink skin, blue eyes, and fades from a light cream when born to almost white as an adult.
Cremello horses are not albino: the eyes are blue, whereas a true albino would have red eyes. They are also not true white horses, which have brown eyes and no dilution factor.
For more information on cream coloring and the dilution gene see creme gene. For more information on true white horses, see Gray (horse).
