About Cherry Cream Soda

Cherry Cream Soda is a display typeface with very wide letters and a mid-century flavour. Font Diner presents it as an extra-wide sans that calls up the soda fountain and the 1950s teenager. In the specimen the capitals stretch sideways, the O and the zero are flattened ovals, and the strokes swell and taper a little, as if painted with a sign-writer's brush. The lowercase mixes in handwritten shapes: the f hooks over at the top, the g ends in a loop, and r and y finish with small flicks. The family has one Regular style, with no bold or italic, and is not a variable font. It holds 228 glyphs, covering English and Western European languages; only the Latin subset is included. Cherry Cream Soda is distributed under the Apache License 2.0.

Where Cherry Cream Soda works

Diner and café menus

The face was drawn around a 1950s soda-fountain theme, which suits menu headings and daily-special boards.

Retro shop signs

Extra-wide capitals fill a long fascia or window sign with just one or two words.

Drink and sweet packaging

Flattened ovals and brush-like strokes give a bottle label or sweet wrapper a mid-century look.

Event flyers

A wide headline for a car show, dance night or fair sets the period tone before any image does.

Things to know

Very wide letters

Each character takes much more horizontal room than in an ordinary sans, so long headlines need a small size or several lines.

Latin subset only

The font has 228 glyphs. Latin Extended is not included.
