I'm a little confused by your description.  When I hear "front end" and "back end", I assume that web requests go into the front-end first, and the front-end internally makes requests to the back-end for data.

If that's the case, then your desire doesn't make much sense, because the react scripts will always see the request first.

If the requests go to CherryPy first, then you certainly have the opportunity to cache results into files and use them later, but you might consider whether using a reverse proxy as the first contact makes sense.
