# How to Make It:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until perfectly smooth and creamy.
02 - Incorporate the vanilla yogurt, whipped topping, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until fully blended and smooth.
03 - Sprinkle the instant cheesecake pudding mix over the cream cheese mixture. Beat thoroughly until the mixture thickens and becomes creamy.
04 - Gently fold in strawberries, blueberries, grapes, pineapple chunks, kiwi slices, and mandarin orange segments. Ensure all fruit is evenly coated with the cheesecake mixture.
05 - Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavours to meld and the texture to set. Serve well chilled.

# Additional Information:

01 - Substitute or add fruits such as raspberries, blackberries, bananas, or mangoes as desired. Ensure any added fruits are fresh and prepared accordingly.
02 - For optimal texture, fold in fresh fruit just before serving to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
03 - Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Mixture may become watery as fruit releases juices.
