This is one of the best gender reveal ideas we’ve ever seen! This question-marked cake, from The Harrells on Hood, is decorated on the outside with pink and blue icing. When cut into, pink candies that were hidden in a hole in the middle cake tier spill out onto the platter. It’s a girl!
Make gender reveal cake pops.

Bake vanilla cake pops, dyed either pink or blue with food coloring, and cover the outside with a pink and blue shell. When the pops are bitten, the color inside and gender of the child are revealed!
(He)r(she)y bars make great refreshments.

Here’s an easy idea that’s suitable for a gender reveal party, too. Get a bunch of Hershey’s chocolate bars (or mini chocolate bars) and color in the “He” and “She” on the wrapper with blue and pink. Or, you can color in just the appropriate word, if the gender is already known.
Make pacifier cookies.

We love these cute cookies by Melissa from the Crafty Cornhusker. First, Oreos are dipped into melted chocolate to serve as the base. Then, jelly beans and Life Savers candies are added. A little bit of ribbon through the Life Saver is a great finishing touch.
Create a display of the guests’ baby shower wishes.

This baby shower party idea comes from the Art Bar. Every guest receives a paper cutout animal to write a wish for the new baby. Then, all the cutouts get hung up with mini clothespins, on lengths of ribbon. Not only is it something interactive to get the guests involved, but the result is a cute paper wall garland that will complement your party décor!
Prepare a diaper door wreath.

Roll up diapers and other baby items, like washcloths and onesies, and hold them in place with ribbon or rubber bands. Then, each item can be tied or rubber banded to a wreath from the craft store.
Make sure the guests are invited in style.
