If you’re thinking this dip might be too sweet, think again. The cream cheese balances the sweet marshmallow creme perfectly and provides just the right amount of tang to keep it from being overly sweet.

Make a pink, berry flavored fruit dip by substituting with strawberry marshmallow fluff.
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for a richer flavor.
Add 1-2 teaspoons of orange or lemon zest for a burst of citrus flavor.

Serving Suggestions for Marshmallow Fluff Dip

We think anytime is a good time to eat the best fruit dip evahhhh. But if you have to narrow it down, these are some of our recommendations:

Holiday dinners – this recipe is one of our “must haves” for ALL holiday meals.
Special events like birthday parties, baby showers and bridal showers.
Transfer the fruit dip to a pretty serving bowl to elevate a simple fruit tray into something special.

I have also served it as after school snacks for the kiddos a time or two. I love watching their faces light up when they walk through the door and see a fruit platter with their favorite marshmallow cream cheese fruit dip on the table. Gotta score those Mom-points when we can, right?!

Can I make fluffy marshmallow cream cheese fruit dip ahead of time?

Yes! You can make this light and fluffy fruit dip 1-2 days ahead of time. Give it a quick stir to fluff it up before serving.

How to Store Leftover Dessert Dip

Transfer leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 5-6 days (but it will be eaten long before that!). I think it tastes best and is easier to dip into if it’s allowed to soften at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before serving.
