After a relaxing (and just a little chaotic 🤣) week in Maui with our kids, grandkids, and extended family, we’re excited to get back to doing what we love—shavin’ ice and serving up refreshing soft serve ice cream and DOLE SOFT SERVE®! 🍧🍦🍍

If you’ve never been to Maui, we highly recommend adding it to your bucket list! 🌴🌊🌺 It’s where our love for authentic Hawaiian-style shave ice and DOLE SOFT SERVE® first began. The island is absolutely beautiful, and those year-round temperatures in the low 80s don’t hurt either!

We’re kicking off the week with a fun lineup of events:

📍 Sunday: Join us at Waukee Lutheran Church of Hope for their annual Taste of Hope event! We’ll be serving up our amazingly soft, fluffy shave ice 🍧

📍 Monday: Find us at the Pleasant Hill Community Farmers Market, where we’ll be shavin’ ice and serving our fan-favorite Pineapple DOLE SOFT SERVE®! Be sure to stop by and support all of the wonderful local vendors while you’re there.

📍 Wednesday: We’re heading north to Nevada for RAGBRAI Nevada 🚲 It’s always a fantastic day filled with riders, vendors, and plenty of fun. If you’re in the area, stop by, cool off with a shave ice or soft serve, and say hello!

We can’t wait to see everyone this week! ☀️🍧🍦🍍
