This creamsicle orange fluff salad is the perfect side for any party or gathering. Filled with mandarin oranges and marshmallows this orange dreamsicle salad is full of flavor and will have everyone asking for the recipe!

It’s Katie from Made to be a Momma here again to share one of our families favorite summer recipes! This orange fluff is a delicious side dish or party treat. We like to add mini marshmallows to our fluff but you can leave them out if you prefer! 

Orange Fluff Salad

This creamsicle fluff has a few steps but it’s well worth the time put into it.  You only need a few simple ingredients and you may already have the stuff on hand.

If you love fluff recipes you have to check out our Oreo fluff or our pistachio fluff salad! Or you can find all our side dishes here. 

How to Make Orange Fluff

Let’s get down to business! Here’s how you make this delicious fluff salad. 

mixing together ingredients for orange fluff in a glass bowl with a wooden spoon

Ingredients needed for Orange Dreamsicle Salad: 

  • 3 oz box of Orange Jello
  • 3 oz box of Vanilla Pudding
  • Water
  • Cool Whip
  • Mandarin Oranges
  • Mini Marshmallows

I like to use this white pot for serving!

In a large bowl combine orange Jell-O and boiling water. Whisk until Jell-o is dissolved. Add cold water and allow to chill for 15 minutes in refrigerator. Slowly whisk in vanilla pudding mix until smooth and chill for another 15-20 minutes or until it becomes slightly thickened.
 
Fold in Cool Whip, mandarin oranges and marshmallows. Chill for at least 1 hour.

Pro Tips: 

  • I like to let this orange fluff sit for at least one hour before serving. You can most certainly make this recipe the day before a gathering. I brought this creamsicle fluff to a morning playdate and everyone loved the recipe!
  • You can top individual servings in ramekins with a little mandarin orange and mini marshmallows to make a perfect Easter or Mothers Day brunch place setting.
