National Ice Cream Day In Cherry Hill: Where To Find Deals, Deliciousness

CHERRY HILL, NJ — National Ice Cream Day is this Sunday, and there's no shortage of ways to celebrate the dairy delights around Cherry Hill.

In 1984, President Ronald Reagan signed legislation declaring July 15 as "National Ice Cream Day." Although the resolution only proclaimed the unofficial holiday for that year, fans of the treat continue to recognize it annually on the third Sunday of July.

It's also a day for deals on ice cream — typically from larger restaurant chains and brands, with some exceptions. But National Ice Cream Day also represents as good an excuse as any to enjoy some local favorites — not that ice cream outings ever require an excuse.

Some of the most popular local joints serving up frozen treats include The Ice Cream Parlour and Cherry's Ice Cream & Water Ice — the latter of which will offer specials for National Ice Cream Day. Those looking to try something relatively new can check out El Confetti Mexican Ice Cream and Dessert, which opened last year on 1206 N Kings Hwy.
