   • In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream and sugar together until stiff peaks form. This will create a fluffy and airy texture, ensuring a light and creamy base for your salad. 💫

2. Mix in Remaining Ingredients:

   • Once the cream and sugar are perfectly whipped, gently fold in the remaining ingredients: cream cheese, cranberries, and crushed pineapple. The cream cheese adds a rich and velvety consistency, while the cranberries and pineapple bring a burst of sweet and tangy flavor to the mix. 🍍🍒

3. Pour into Loaf Pan and Freeze:

   • Line a loaf pan with wax paper for easy removal later. Pour the creamy mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Then, pop it into the freezer to set. The freezing process will solidify the salad, transforming it into a delightful chilled treat that’s perfect for any festive occasion. ❄️

4. Serve with Style:

   • When you’re ready to serve, remove the pan from the freezer and let it thaw slightly for easier slicing. Once thawed, carefully unmold the salad from the pan and peel away the wax paper. Cut it into slices using a sharp knife, creating elegant portions for your guests to enjoy. For a finishing touch, garnish each slice with sprigs of fresh mint, adding a pop of color and a hint of herbal freshness to the presentation. 🌱🍰
