Pastel and playful, this fluffy fruit salad folds pineapple, mandarin oranges, and maraschino cherries into a cloud of sour cream and whipped topping, with marshmallows and coconut for good measure. A little almond extract gives it that nostalgic church-supper flavour. Chill it overnight so everything softens and the flavours settle before it lands on the table.
