Dole Whip at Home (Now with Experiments!)

[Disneyphile]

Since a lot of people have asked before, I figured I'd share:

I found Dole Whip mix available for purchase online at http://www.uec-hawaii.com/products2.html (it's the 3rd item down).

Mine just arrived today.

I know you said it ARRIVED but have you actually tired it yet? Is it good, is it still tasty without the Tiki ambience?????

I'm still at work.

And it will be enjoyed with Tiki ambience - of which we also have at home. (Photos will be coming soon in a seperate thread.)

I have big, big plans for this stuff. Not only will it be used in a small soft-serve machine, but I plan on mixing it in a blender with some ice and Malibu for a little Drinki Drinki.

Also - I am going to reconstitute some of it into a syrup consistency and add it to my fresh soda water in an experiment to make Enchanted Tiki Soda.

The last option (soda) I'll be attempting this evening.

[keith - SuPeR K!]

do you need a machine to make it?

[Goin2DL]

Where do you get a soft serve machine? The site looks like the products are for professional machines (like Dairy Queen has).

Hahahaha, yessss.

Do tell us how your experiments turn out.

If sucessful, I myself will order some of this mixed goodness for my future wedding. I keep telling everyone that I want to have dole whips there

Amazon.com has some home-sized soft-serve ice cream makers starting at $30. Surprisingly, there are a few different brands.

The mix is dry, so you just reconstitute it with tap water and pour it in your ice-cream maker or experiment with other methods, as I'm also doing. You can mix up the whole bag or just a little bit.

Glad to hear you willl have homemade dole whips soon!!!

I'll let you know how that turns out. After all, it's a powder mix - should be able to be used as a sugar substitute when making frosting.
