# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat the heavy cream with electric beaters for 1 to 2 minutes until slightly thickened. Gradually incorporate powdered sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the Greek yogurt.
02 - Ensure all canned fruits are thoroughly drained. Place mandarin oranges, pineapple tidbits, maraschino cherries, shredded coconut, and marshmallows into a large serving bowl.
03 - Carefully fold the whipped cream and yogurt mixture into the fruit combination until evenly incorporated. Optionally, add any desired additional fruits or nuts at this stage.
04 - Refrigerate the assembled mixture for a minimum of 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.

# Additional Notes:

01 - For best texture, ensure the whipped cream reaches stiff peaks to maintain fluffiness.
