Dole Whip?

[cgriff]

I don't want to upset anyone but, the local ice cream stand in my hometown sells Dole Whips in Pineapple everyday and another fruit flavor from March 1st through Thanksgiving.

I would think they are not the only ice cream stand to sell Dole Whip. Maybe you could contact Dole?

Hi WDWhuny! WDW is certainly not the only place that you can find Dole Whip, but it does remain a relatively difficult to find treat... All any ice cream stand needs to sell Dole Whip is a soft serve machine and the Dole Whip mix, but I don't think that a lot of places sell it because it would take one of their machines away from serving real soft-serve ice cream (the fruit-flavored whips being a lactose-free product that is neither frozen ice cream nor frozen yogurt).

If there was a lot of competition among ice cream joints in a given city, I'd think that offering Dole Whip might be good for one of the operators to offer as a little bit of differentiation...

Okay, I'll definitely be trying one on our upcoming trip. I heard everyone rave about them before our last trip, but never actually tried one. Certainly won't let that happen again this time.

I had a Dole Whip at the Dole Plantation in Honolulu, Hawaii, three weeks ago! It didn't even occur to me that the plantation would have Dole Whips. I had only ever had Dole Whips at WDW which I always thought were only at Disney. You could also get a Dole Whip in the food court at the International Marketplace in Waikiki Beach at an ice cream stand selling Dole products.

I love the half dole whip/half vanilla! Yum...only they don't have sprinkles anymore. We were told they found them too messy but not sure that is the real reason. I actually have a little container of disney sprinkles that I keep in my purse for my grandson. Now I also use them for us on our dole whips!

We had one at the Dole Plantation too! We were there about a week and a half ago, and was so glad I tried one. I'm not a big pineapple fan and was worried I wouldn't like it, but it was delicious!!
