Sorry for the delay, I'm catching up reading emails slowly.  

Evan's cherry has yellow flesh, but the juice that drained out when I ran them through my pitter/stoner is definitely red.  When I canned pie filling using them with corn starch, the juice turned pink and the cherries turned a somewhat unappetizing orange while still tasting amazing.  But when I canned Evan's cherry pie filling with a commercial "corn derived" thickener (Ultra Sperse), the entire jar stayed a beautiful cherry red like store bought pie filling.
Jam made from them using sugar is a beautiful jewel red.
