This is close, but it's not it. And if you like your Dole whips just like they serve them, then you're going to be able to tell the difference. This is the ONE thing I would splurge on when Emily and I would go to DL with the kids during the week. I love this stuff and it has to be right. I feel like the pineapple taste isn't strong enough and the cream gives it the wrong texture. A little too slippery of an after taste. But, it is close. And it is easy to make. It's still good. And.... I still eat it for breakfast.
