SIMON’S YOGURT & PINEAPPLE WHIP

No time to go to Disneyland to satisfy that Dole Whip craving? No worries. We love this frozen yogurt shop that offers authentic Dole Whip pineapple frozen yogurt and other amazing flavors. Usually the flavors are Pineapple, Mango, Passion-Orange, Watermelon, Original Tart (so good!), Cake Batter, Vanilla, Chocolate, and Cookies n’Cream. You serve yourself and are charged based on the weight of your cup once you fill it. There are waffle cups available and many different toppings. They also offer drinks made with the frozen yogurt, such as Dole Whip floats, “Mangonada” and yogurt Affogato for espresso lovers. They also sell dog-safe, probiotic-enriched yogurt cups for your pooch. We love that almost all the yogurt flavors are certified gluten-free, since our daughter has celiac disease. It’s nice to be able to go out with her for a treat once in a while. We love all the flavors and find it hard to limit what we put in our cups, but both for calorie reasons and our budget, we have to watch out. It’s very easy to spend $8-$10 on a cup of yogurt even without toppings or extras. The inside is clean and cute, if a little eccentric with the cherry blossom tree and plush toys everywhere. Staff is generally often absent in the back but come out right away when you walk in, and they are always nice and helpful, offering tastings if you want to try before you buy. It’s never been super-busy when we go. Overall, this is a nice stop for tasty frozen yogurt!

Are all your Dole whips gluten free?! :)
