With a New Flavor, Dole Whip Coming to More Retail Locations

Dole Whip new flavor
Dole Packaged Foods LLC

With its real fruit foundation, and creamy texture, the Dole Whip retail lineup isn't ice cream, sorbet, sherbet, or gelato—it's something entirely new.

March 23, 2026

Dole Packaged Foods, LLC – a world leader in fruit innovation - announces a major expansion of its fast-growing Dole Whip retail offerings, introducing new formats and a new tropical flavor that bring the iconic treat's smooth, creamy texture and real fruit goodness to more moments and more homes than ever before.

New Dole Whip retail offerings have quickly become a fan favorite for its unique, uplifting feel, and indulgent creaminess—all without dairy or high fructose corn syrup. Now, the brand is building on that momentum with expanded retail offerings designed to meet consumers whenever and wherever they crave a little moment of sunshine.

Consumers can now enjoy Dole Whip in three tropical flavors made with real fruit:

  • Pineapple — a beloved classic that delivers bright pineapple flavor in every craveable spoonful.
  • Mango — bursting with the juicy sweetness of ripe mango, finished with a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Tropical Guava Passion — a vibrant, aromatic flavor fusion of guava and passion fruit - an exciting new addition sure to become a hit.

"Dole Whip is everything today's consumers are searching for but couldn't find in the aisle," said Mike Secor, VP of marketing for Dole Packaged Foods U.S. "It's a moment of sunshine—smooth, creamy, vibrant, made with real fruit and unlike anything else on the market. That's why this isn't just a new product launch. It's a category disruption."

With its real fruit foundation, and creamy texture, the Dole Whip retail lineup isn't ice cream, sorbet, sherbet, or gelato—it's something entirely new. Bringing fruit-powered flavor to the frozen aisle in the way only Dole can, the new retail dessert has no high fructose corn syrup and is dairy-free. This launch marks Dole's bold step into creating and owning a new frozen dessert category anchored in fruit-first indulgence.

Enjoy a creamy flavor escape straight from your freezer, anytime. Dole Whip is now available at select retailers nationwide including Albertson's, Harris Teeter, Publix, Ralph's, Stop & Shop, Hannaford, Target and more retailers with a limited time, seasonal return to Costco this spring.
