This annual food holiday celebrates the classic cheesecake topped with cherries. While savory cheesecakes have been around since Ancient Greece, cream cheese wasn’t invented until the 1870s and the cherry cheesecakes with a graham cracker crust so popular in the United States are a rather new introduction.

To celebrate Cherry Cheesecake Cake, shop for cherry cheesecake at a farmers market, bakery or dessert shop. Or, bake your own and share with friends.
