Ice Cream Maker (Soft Serve)
No trip to Disney can be complete without a taste of everyone's pineapple treat - Dole Whip. It's a delicious pineapple soft serve treat - perfect anytime.
Luckily you don't have to wait to go back to Disney. You can enjoy the exact same treat at home! All you need is a Soft Serve Ice Cream maker and the Dole Whip mix. Both of these are available on Amazon.com. (Not really a surprise!)
Ice Cream Maker
We have a Cuisinart Soft Serve Ice Cream Maker. It works really well, the key thing to remember is that the main container needs to be frozen for at least 12 hours before you use it. We kept ours in the Freeze at all times, that way when we need to make ice cream, we can do it and not have to think 12 hours ahead of time.
We recommend getting an additional ice cream maker freezer bowl. That way you don't have to wait an additional 12 hours if you want a different treat on a hot day.
Each batch of Soft Serve ice cream makes 1.5 quarts of delicious soft serve ice cream.
The Cuisinart Soft Serve Ice Cream Maker can make all sorts of delicious treats. We made a chocolate soft serve ice cream for our neighbor and he told us that it was the best he ever tasted. It should be since there are no added chemicals to preserve the ice cream.
Dole Soft Serve Mix
A 4.4-pound bag of Dole Pineapple Soft Serve mix cost $24.59 and will make about 89 1/2 cup serving.
In the parks you get at least a full cup serving. That means each bag will make 45 delicious pineapple treat.
In the parks, the treat cost $4.95. Which means the single bag will produce about $225 worth of treats.
Each Dole Whip serving is Fat-Free, Lactose-Free, Dairy Free, Cholesterol Free, and Gluten Free.
Just like the Park
We made a batch shortly after coming back from Disney and can verify that, as long as you follow the instructions, it will taste exactly like the one in the park.
Perfect for any small kids party - that has a Disney theme.
The good thing is that you don't need any extra ingredients.
If you keep the Ice Maker in the freezer, you can make your favorite Dole Whip whenever you want.
