Because "la glace de la pêche" translates to "the ice cream of the peach" which would mean there is a specific peach somewhere that somehow abstractly owns an ice cream.

Still showing the same contradiction, only a couple examples apart. I have no idea why, and Duo isn't shedding any light. Singular pie -> plural peaches, but singular ice cream -> singular peach. Utterly irrational.

Why "la glace a la peche" , but " un gateau aux peches"?
What is the role of singular and plural for food? Just hope his post can alert someone to answer this question of years old.

On the previous one, if you use "tarte (pie)" instead of "gateau (cake)" it will be correct: une tarte a la peche (using the correct accents for "a" and the "e" in peche).

"Crème glacée aux pêches" has more google results than "Crème glacée a la peche" but isn't accepted.

Why not "La glace de peche? I had finally thought i understood when to use de to join two nouns...but i clearly don't.
