Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until smooth and creamy. - Add fruits and marshmallows:
Stir in the drained mandarin oranges, crushed pineapple, and mini marshmallows. - Chill:
Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the salad to set. - Serve:
