History
André Viard in Le Cuisinier Impérial, first published in 1806, gives a recipe for glace de cerises. Cherry ice cream has been produced in the United States since at least 1892. A version of the dish created in 1932 included bitter almond extract, which is used as an additive on sour cherries, and was described as providing the flavor of maraschino cherry to the sour cherries.
It has become a tradition for cherry ice cream to be served at the International Cherry Blossom Festival in Macon, Georgia.
Mass production
Cherry ice cream has been mass-produced in the United States since at least 1917.
