Expert Tips

Cover the top of the pie completely with the whipped cream so the color underneath does not show and ruin the surprise!

For even more Hawaiian flair, add a few teaspoons coconut-flavored rum to the whipped cream.

To toast coconut, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat 6 to 14 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.

Garnish with additional toasted coconut if desired.

I would assume a "gender reveal party" would be one where expectant parents would reveal the gender of their expected baby. Blue if a boy, pink if a girl. Yep, they forgot to include the 3/4 cup sugar in the ingredient list, but I think the 1/3 cup sugar for the whipped cream is correct. It does not have to be powdered sugar. If you whip it correctly, regular sugar works fine.

What is a "gender reveal party" and why would I want to make a blue pie for one?

The recipe is not complete. It talks about 3/4 cup sugar in the preparation steps but not in the ingredient list. Also, it says to use granulated sugar in the whipped cream but it should be powdered sugar. Someone did not pay attention to this recipe when they posted it.
