I hated this salad when I was growing up: It was pink, had too many ingredients in it, and my very Southern family loved it — three good reasons to abstain. During Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, my mother would always go back for seconds, chiming, "You don't know what you're missing." But I knew, all right — an unappealing mishmash of canned fruit and mayonnaise. No thanks. However, as I've grown older my family's "Southern classics" don't embarrass me as much. I've actually eaten this salad many times as an adult, and though I'm not saying it's my favorite, sometimes I need seconds to be sure.

There's cake under there, we swear!

These cute, packable treats need to be formed when the caramel is still warm and malleable. For this popcorn balls recipe, after coating them with caramel, wait just long enough for them to be cool enough to handle.

Feel free to try whatever toppings you’d like; if it goes well with chocolate, it will go well with these.

The addition of gelatin is what makes the meringue-like topping stay billowy but firm, without weeping, even at room temperature.
