Dole Whip Recipes And History To Celebrate This Special Day!

Happy Dole Whip Day! Let’s celebrate with three delicious Dole Whip Recipes that will for sure become a favorite in your home!

But first, let’s take a look back at how this delicious treat became a must have for Disney fans around the world. When we think about Dole Whips, our minds immediately associate it with Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room and there is a reason for that. Even though the attraction opened in 1963, it wasn’t until 1976 that Dole Food Company became an official sponsor of the Disneyland attraction.

Thanks to this collaboration, the Tiki Juice Bar started serving Dole pineapple spears and juice, and by 1986 they introduced what we now know as the Dole Whip and Dole Whip Float, treats that are a must have anytime we visit a Disney Park!

The demand for this treat was so big that Disney decided to introduce more Dole Whip inspired deserts, foods and even merchandise! So now that you know a little bit more about Dole Whips, let’s take a look at these 3 Dole Whip recipes you can recreate at home and celebrate this sweet day:
