Gumdrop Salad image

This sounded like a really pretty, really appropriate salad for Easter. After all, what could represent Easter more than gum drops? (I know what you're thinking,but I say it's a tie!) This could be a real conversation piece on your buffet table, and you know the kids will delight in it! Recipe was submitted by Starshineeliz on TOH. If you want to use large marshmallows in this salad, be sure to quarter them!
