Is it a boy or a girl?

The Big Reveal
When you’re ready for the big reveal, candy is the perfect choice. Imagine this scene. The mom and dad-to-be stand next to a cake stand, knife in hand, ready to reveal the answer to today’s big question: boy or girl? Their friends and family gather close. Together mom and dad cut the cake (just like on their wedding day). Cameras flash.
Sixlets spill out of the cake. But what color are they? Pink or blue?
Use this Rainbow Surprise Inside cake recipe from Betty Crocker to make a gender reveal cake. Replace the multi-colored frosting with alternating pink and blue details. Then fill the inside with either pink or blue sixlets instead of the M&M’s. If you prefer M&M’s though you can get them in all pink or all blue as well.
