Classic Mandarin Orange Salad

This Mandarin Orange Salad—often known as Orange Fluff or Ambrosia—is a timeless, nostalgic side dish that blends creamy richness with a bright burst of citrus. The secret lies in the dry vanilla pudding mix, which combines with the crushed pineapple juice to form a smooth, mousse-like texture that perfectly suspends the fruit. Light, refreshing, and always popular, it’s a potluck favorite for a reason.
