What are dole whips?

[tinkerbellfan246]

I have been hearing a lot about dole whips lately on Intercot and I was just wondering what they are? They must be good because I have noticed a lot of people talking about them! Thanks! :mickey:

There is one place near the Swiss Family Treehouse called Aloha Isle in MK and one at a Resort but can't remember which one, Poly I think called Captain Cook’s.

They are pineapple flavored soft serve ice cream. You can also get a Dole Whip Float which is the dole whip in pineapple juice.

[snowflakegirl]

They're deliciousness! Pineapple soft serve ice cream (they do have other flavors)....and for an even better treat, pineapple soft serve float in dole pineapple juice!! So tasty. :mickey:

[caryrae]

If ya do a internet search you will see pictures I'm sure.

[Disney4us2]

They are so yummy. Soft serve pineapple ice cream. I get mine every month at Disneyland. Pineapple is the only flavor there.

Darn, now I want one:mickey:

Dole Whip is a fruit-flavored soft serve ice-cream. It comes in a variety of flavors. At Disney World, they serve the pineapple and orange flavors at Aloha Isle in MK and Captain Cook's at the Poly. It can be eaten either plain or as a float with fruit juice. I prefer the pineapple float with pineapple juice. No matter how you eat it, it's yummy!

[AdventurerKim]

I love Dole Whips! You can also get a Dole Whip at the Dole Plantation in Honolulu and at the food court at the International Market Place in Waikiki Beach. I got my picture taken with my Dole Whip last summer at the Dole plantation as I'd never seen a Dole Whip outside of Disney.

[jonahbear2006]

I was skeptical bc I do not like ice cream, however, this snack is heaven in a cup! I love love love pineapple dole whips with pineapple juice! bring me some more of that!

[cardshopgirl]

Man, now I want one!!! They are awesome!!!:mickey:

[caryrae]

Maybe they should add Dole whip splits to the menu. You would get a couple of pineapple spears, instead of bananas, with a soft serve flavor on top.

Kathy, I thought they only had pineapple and vanilla at Aloha Isle?
I love to get the swirl of vanilla and pineapple in the float. They are so refreshing!

[Darbylew]

You can find dole whips at Aloha Isle it is right
after you cross the bridge into Adventure land
on the right in the MK. They are really good so
you must try one. :thumbsup:
BEEN THERE, DONE THAT AND GOING BACK IN
MAY! :D

I love to get the swirl of vanilla and pineapple in the float. They are so refreshing!They do have vanilla and chocolate as well but I know they also have orange with the pineapple. Places outside of WDW have other flavors too. I know it comes in raspberry and strawberry but it's hard to find. I like the pineapple with the pineapple juice myself. Sometimes when I crave one, I buy orange sherbert and mix that with Dole pineapple juice and pretend. It's a pretty good substitution.

I'm not a big pineapple fan and thought they sounded nasty, however -- I'm now totally hooked on them!!

We were at Disney when I was pregnant with DS#2 and I had a Dole Whip several times each DAY we were there!!! DH joked that I better never have a craving for one once we got home, it would be a heck of a road trip for a food craving!!

Once you know what a Dole Whip is you know you've arrived !

:welcome::rocks::tikki::lei:

[DisneyFr33k]

:hide2: Don't shoot me, but we didn't think much of one. We posted here before our last trip and heard so much wonderful praise, we were so excited to try one! Maybe because of that, our expectations were set too high? :sorry:

[biodtl]

Places outside of WDW have other flavors too. I know it comes in raspberry and strawberry but it's hard to find.
I have found 2 places close to where I live that serve Dole Whip - they alternate flavors - strawberry, raspberry, mango & pineapple. But I only really want the pineapple.

[forever a child]

Sorry, but unless they do chocolate...I'm not interested. Anyways, it will leave more for the rest of you;)

[divinedi]

Tried them for the first time our last visit, very yummy!

[princess8813]

We can have them again in 65 days!! I think dole whips should be deemed as a new food group all it's own!

[DizNee143]

its just pineapple ice cream..

[BigThunderFan]

Did you get your picture taken with your face in the giant pineapple? That is one of my favorite pics from our honeymoon.

To the original poster: A Dole Whip is a little slice of heaven that is only one snack credit on the DDP :) Darn it, now I want one!

[seanyred]

its just pineapple ice cream..

nope its much more than that...It always seems you either love dole whip or don't think its much to talk about it. But us folks who love it are a little goofy (pun intended) about it.

[Imagineer1981]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm dole whip (homer voice)

[Mendelson]

Technically, it's not ice cream. But your stomach and taste buds won't know the difference.

I don't know how people can do the pineapple-on-pineapple...that was way too tart for me. Vanilla Dole Whip on pineapple juice, however....mmm, that's perfect.

[retiredfigment]

We love them. Pineapple ice cream heaven. I have not tried the recipe yet, but plan to soon. thanks for posting it.

[biodtl]

I think that's why I like it so much - I never knew exactly what the ingredients were, but it seems less creamy/dairy than ice cream (though not entirely so like sorbet). I like ice cream, but when it's very hot out, I don't find it very refreshing - it seems to make me a little nauseous. But Dole Whip is quite refreshing.

no really thats all it is..actually might be frozen yogurt..although i had its supposingly good to eat for people who are lactose intolarent..but really thats all it is..i dont care if people love it or hate..bottom line its just creamy pineapple flavor stuff...:mickey:

[hurdlertwin]

It doesn't sound that good, but when I had it it was so delicious!!! Highly recomended!

[LudwigVonDrake]

Dole Whips are delicious :tasty:

[PlutoPlanet]

The Dole Whip is our favorite snack in the World.

[GenieOfPA]

What are dole whips you ask? Well, simply put... AMAZING! now i want one... 72 more days...

[mainemajor]

They're deliciousness! Pineapple soft serve ice cream (they do have other flavors)....and for an even better treat, pineapple soft serve float in dole pineapple juice!! So tasty. :mickey:

In March I visited MK for 1 day - Give a day of service pass - and my one purchase was a Dole Whip Float. It was on my to do list and I did it. Then I sat down and enjoyed it so much since I don't know when I will be back.

[TikiLounger]

What are Dole Whips? They are very tasty! Yum. I can't wait for one...June!:papple:

[finaldynasty]

They are the most wonderful creation in the world!

[Fastpasssteve]

At one point, one could also get this in strawberry flavor in Fantasyland behind the castle. I can't remember which counter service location it was. Not sure if they still serve it.

I do love the Dole whip, though.

[PlutoPlanet]

I ordered some Dole Whip over the Internet and will make it at home tonight. It won't be the same as having it in MK, but I'm crossing my fingers.

[5MemphisTiggers]

Sorry, but unless they do chocolate...I'm not interested.

Now THERE'S a tasty thought . . . pineapple Dole whip with chocolate. Oooo . . . . :thumbsup:

We have a chocolate fountain that we pull out for special parties and recently started offering chunks of pineapple for dipping (along with strawberrys and pound cake). I didn't think it sounded too good, but WOW is it ever delicious.

May have to throw some chocolate sauce in the day pack next trip.

[SurferStitch]

I had a couple on our last trip because the thought of heavy ice cream in the 93 degree heat made me :sick:. I love chocolate ice cream, but not when it's sweltering hot out.

They are pretty good. I don't LOVE them, but they are a refreshing alternative to ice cream. They are the perfect mix of sweet and tart. DH tried the float... it looked gross after a couple minutes of melting. I didn't care for it.

I don't get the obsession with them, buy hey, to each his own! Like me...I'm obsessed with the Minnie's Bakery cookies! :cloud9:

[PlutoPlanet]

Making Dole Whip at home from the powder worked out very well. (I'll still have one at MK every year, though.) I used 3 and 1/2 cups of water instead of a full quart. I made sure I used very cold water instead of room temperature water.

[Pagan]

Nectar of the Gods....

[crltkcagle]

:DHeavenly goodness is what they are! :thumbsup:

[Suzi Q]

should be classified as a highly addictive substance! pineapple soft serve over pineapple juice....I had one (sometimes 2!) every day when I was there the first week of May. Delicious!

[PlutoPlanet]

I was surprised how thirsty one makes me. I may not notice that at MK when I have the pineapple juice with it.

So, I'll just have a glass of water handy.

[LorrieP]

Simply the best!!

[ANG]

I've never had one. I'll be sure to get one on the next trip!

[ShanPooh]

Dole Whip Float - w/ half pineapple juice, half Sprite :papple: :D

[finaldynasty]

Only two weeks until I get to say What a Dole Whip!
