Sweet cherries land mid-pack for fruit calories; the pits slow you down for free. On the energy-density scale, 63 kcal per 100 g puts cherries at the low end.
A typical serving (1 cup, without pits, 154 g) has about 97 calories, and 100 g has 63 kcal. Calories scale with weight, so double the portion means double the number.
There are 1.1 g of protein in 100 g of cherries, which works out to about 1.7 g per serving (1 cup). Treat it as an energy source rather than a protein source.
Sugar comes to 12.8 g per 100 g, so 1 cup (154 g) delivers roughly 20 g. That sugar is already counted inside the calorie figures on this page.
Every value on this page comes from USDA FoodData Central, entry 171719 (SR Legacy). Serving figures are converted from the per-100-g data, so rounding can shift a total by a calorie or two.
