LIGHTENED DREAMSICLE FLUFF image

This is my delicious lightened up version of a dreamsicle salad, a cool and creamy orange fluff with slightly tart, juicy mandarin orange segments and little bits of soft, sweet marshmallows. If you didn't know better, you'd probably think it has lots of sugar, but it doesn't. The only sugar is in the marshmallows. Please note that the orange segments may be halved or left whole according to your preference.
