•Always – Use bananas that are “cheetah spotted” before freezing. “Cheetah spots are
a sign that the banana is over-ripe, and the more brown spots, the sweeter the banana.
Cheetah spotted bananas make the best Yonanas!”
•Always – Peel over-ripe bananas before freezing.
•Always – Freeze peeled over-ripe bananas and other frozen fruits for at least 24 hours
before using the Yonanas maker.
•Always – Make sure the chute is locked in place in the 12 o’clock position on the base.
•Always – Stir Yonanas for desired soft serve ice cream consistency.
For best results, Yonanas should have the consistency of soft serve ice cream. Each fruit and each
freezer is different, but typically your fruit and other frozen ingredients should slightly thaw for 10-15
minutes prior to making Yonanas. You’ll quickly find the right thawing time for every fruit.
Try Yonanas with DOLE®Frozen Fruits:
DOLE®supplies grocery stores with an assortment of frozen fruit packages featuring blackberries,
blueberries, dark cherries, mangoes, pineapples, peaches, strawberries and raspberries. For
especially tasty Yonanas try DOLE®frozen fruit combinations including their Mixed Berries, Fruit
Medley and the Tropical Fruit mix.
Pieces of frozen chocolate may be added.
When using berries or other frozen fruit, alternate between banana halves and additional contents
to ensure an even mixture.
Note: Do not use Frozen Water/Ice Cubes. Ensure all pits are removed from fruit.
Get Into the YoZone...
Pick the right banana and
thaw it perfectly!
Why cheetah spotted bananas? Cheetah
spots are a sign that a banana is over-ripe,
and the more brown spots, the sweeter the
banana. Cheetah spotted bananas make
the best Yonanas.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The Yonanas maker stops during use
and will not turn back on.
The most likely reason this is happening is that
the safety feature has kicked in. The machine
won’t work unless the chute assembly is locked
in at the 12 o’clock position. To do this, rotate
the chute assembly counter-clockwise until chute
clicks into the locked position. The interlock
mechanism in the base prevents motor from
turning on when chute is in not in place.
The Yonanas maker will not turn on.
Check to see if the unit is plugged in and/or the
outlet is working. If the machine still doesn’t start,
confirm that the chute assembly is locked in at
the 12 o’clock position.
The Yonanas maker emits a
burning smell.
There might be some residue on the motor from
the manufacturing process during the products
first uses. If odor continues and/or smoke
appears, turn off and unplug IMMEDIATELY.
Nothing comes out of the machine
when you put a banana in it.
Make sure to use 2 frozen bananas to push
through the machine. If using fruit, use one frozen
banana then frozen fruit, alternating and finish
with a frozen banana. A quick stir in the bowl
will insure that all the ingredients are mixed
together.
