You can even use just well-drained fruit cocktail which is basically what this OLD recipe used. I have seen it done with cubes of prepared jello with less water to make it firmer added to it along with the fruit. Makes it very pretty. This is one of my husband's favorite desserts. I love it as it uses less sugar than some fruit salads. Prefer it over a recipe that calls for sweetened condensed milk.
