Dole’s Fruit Smoothie Shakers and Frozen Fruit Single-Serve Cups {#Review and #Giveaway} CLOSED

July 1, 2012 By Sara Phillips 218 Comments

Texas is HOT in the summer … very, VERY hot. We’ve already been hitting the 100+ degree mark and last week we broke a record. (If I recall, the old record was 103* and we hit 106* that day.)

Anyway, it’s nice to have cold, healthy treats. Dole makes Fruit Smoothie Shakers that are PERFECT for anytime, but I like them best in the middle of the afternoon! I just love the Smoothie Shakers! They are delicious and super easy. I made the first one (Mixed Berry) for myself while the kids had a snack one day. OH YUM! It was creamy and perfect! The Smoothie Shaker really it the spot! Since then, I’ve been making them (Strawberry Banana) with my breakfast. Still amazing, but they for me, they are the perfect afternoon snack! I use grape juice to make mine. I’d recommend the Smoothie Shakers over and over again! What flavor strikes your fancy?

About Dole Fruit Smoothie Shakers:

They are made with real fruit and non-fat yogurt containing pre- and probiotics (live and active cultures). Shake your way into an all-natural, great-tasting smoothie – without the mess of using a blender and at a fraction of the cost of buying from a smoothie shop.

Dole Fruit Smoothie Shakers are made with frozen yogurt beads and finely cut fruit. Through Dole’s unique product development, you simply remove from the freezer, add your favorite juice, then shake for 30-45 seconds for an instant real-fruit and yogurt smoothie.

Dole Fruit Smoothie Shakers are great as a snack or a meal replacement, and a terrific, easy option for adding healthy fruit and real yogurt to your everyday diet.

They come in Strawberry Banana, Strawberry and Mixed Berry. Their suggested retail price is $2.19 (though prices may vary).

The Frozen Fruit Single-serve cups are great, too! Colin will go in and grab a cup, set them out for about 10 minutes and then tell me he needs help opening it. He LOVES the cold fruit treat, and I love that it’s healthy for him! James enjoys them, but not as cold as Colin likes them. The strawberries, blueberries and pineapple all taste great – just like fruit I’ve brought home from the store and frozen for a few hours. I’d recommend the Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups!

About Dole Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups:

They utilize breakthrough, patent-pending technology to minimize texture-loss during defrost for a just-like-fresh appearance, taste and texture with the Nature Lock seal guarantee – so the fruit is never mushy.

Dole Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups provide delicious frozen fruit in unique and convenient single-serve cups. Simply grab a cup from your freezer and enjoy at home or on the go. Unlike traditional shelf-stable and refrigerated fruit cups that are packed in juice or syrup, Dole Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups are just fruit and contain no added sugars or preservatives. Each cup contains a full serving of fruit and 50 calories or less.

Dole Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups can be enjoyed as a snack any time of day, and are also great for smoothies, as toppings and recipe ingredients, or on their own as a healthy dessert.

They come in Strawberry and Pineapple at suggested retail price is $2.49 for a pack of two 3-oz. cups, or Blueberry at a suggested retail price of $2.79 for a pack of two 3-oz. cups. (Prices may vary depending on geographic location and retail store.)
