Dress it up!
Easy Raspberry Jello Fruit Salad is delicious all by itself, however, we love to top off individual servings with a little whipped cream or Cool Whip. It gives it a creamy texture and compliments the fruity dessert. Don’t forget a sprig of mint on top!
Also, try a sprinkling of chopped nuts, fresh fruit, or maraschino cherries on top for added texture and taste.
