Notes

  • Storage: Store ambrosia salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 
  • Store ambrosia salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 
  • You can use fresh mandarin oranges and fresh pineapple in place of canned
  • You can use 2 drained 15.5-ounce cans of fruit cocktail in place of all of the fruit in this recipe.
  • Maraschino cherries will turn your Cool Whip pink. I recommend adding them right before serving to avoid this
  • Ambrosia salad can be left out of the refrigerator for up to 2 hours, but I recommend serving it cold because the whipped cream dressing will start to melt after just 30 minutes.
