Craft the Next Great At-Home Dole Whip Recipe & Become a Dole Content Ambassador for 2024!
Dole Food Company has set a high bar for the three established social media influencers it looks to add to its team of professionals creating exclusive content for its industry-leading social media channels in 2024.
In addition to being active advocates of Dole’s larger mission of wellness, healthy living and a diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, the three winning candidates must also be able to create a memorable original Dole Whip DIY recipe in the spirit of the iconic frozen treat that was originally introduced by Dole at Disneyland in the 1980s as part of its sponsorship of Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room.
The three content ambassadors are being selected as part of the #DoleWhipLife 2024 Dole Creators of the Year Contest, a nationwide search organized by Dole’s digital marketing manager, Rachel Young, and open through Jan. 15, 2024.
“As Dole continues to expand its digital footprint and equity in healthy living, we’ve identified the need to expand our family of advocates who can help us spread our vision for a healthier, happier, more fruitful life,” said Young. “We think combining the industry’s most experienced recipe-developers, dietitians, and produce marketers with a select group of consumers with passionate followings aligns us well for the future.”
“Of course, this being Dole, we also need to make sure that all new ambassadors can make a great Dole Whip,” she added.

Three winners will be notified by Feb. 2, 2024, revealed to the public as #DoleWhipLife 2024 Dole Creators of the Year by Feb.7, 2024, and receive a prize pack featuring a physical award and $1,200.
