DOLE Whip is one of those signature snacks that many feel cannot be missed on their trip to Walt Disney World. First appearing in Disney World at Magic Kingdom in 1984, it was originally known as DOLE Pineapple Whip. It’s refreshing, comes in a variety of flavors and swirls, and can be served in a cup, cone, or float. What’s more is that many flavors of DOLE Whip are dairy-free! While the original pineapple flavor can be found year-round throughout Walt Disney World, there are many seasonal flavors that pop-up throughout the year making for even more interesting menu choices and combinations.
While DOLE Whip is essential to many families’ Disney vacations, surprisingly it not quite as available as other popular frozen treats like the Mickey Ice Cream bar or Mickey Ice Cream sandwich. If you are like me and plan ahead which snacks you want to try on each day of your trip, you may find the below list of locations useful in where you can find DOLE Whip at Walt Disney World theme parks and Resorts.
