Does "the pink stuff" have a name?

Question

My grandmother loves creating weird casseroles that don't have names. Ever since I was little I can remember her making this "pink stuff" for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. I've never liked it much though. All I can remember is that it has mini marshmallows in it and is covered in a light pink sauce( made from some kind of berry). I think it might also have coconuts in it (not sure) I mentioned it in my last question and a couple people said they didn't like "the pink stuff" either....so maybe its not one of my grandmothers strange concoctions? Does it have a name?

Ambrosia Salad. The "pink stuff" in the salad is a pudding based sauce with a little food coloring and assortment of fruits and berries with a close tint enough to be pink. My mom makes it whenever she can she loves the stuff....eeewwwwww...
