Notes
Storage:
- To Store: Place leftover grape salad in the refrigerator for up to one week. Make sure to cover it so that the cream doesn’t dry up.
- To Freeze: Do not freeze. This will not thaw well.
- Add some marshmallow cream or chopped candy bars to your grape salad dessert for an extra sweet spin! I love the taste and texture of my grape and Snickers salad, but pieces of Milky Way, Twix, Rolos, or 3 Musketeers will also work well.
- Add additional fresh fruit to this grapes salad. Apples, strawberries, or even bananas would taste delicious.
- Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs, chopped pecans, or even crushed pretzels over the top of your salad for a garnish and extra crunch.
