Gender Reveal Party Food
Throwing a gender reveal party to celebrate the upcoming birth of your child is a great way to bring family and friends together. But what can you serve that celebrates the moment? Here are some of the best gender reveal party food items to try.
Whether you’re setting up a full buffet for your guests or just a few simple snacks, there are many ways to incorporate the gender reveal theme into your party food. Unified colors – blue and pink – can be seen in many of the food choices, making it easy to coordinate a gender reveal party menu.
Cupcakes
Gender-reveal cupcakes are a must at any gender-reveal party! Color them blue and pink and place unique 'gender reveal' toppers over them that announce the gender onto the dessert. Place them on a cupcake tier or have them individually wrapped and set up on a buffet table.
Popcorn
If you’re looking for a treat that fits into the “gender reveal” theme – and that won’t break the bank – then popcorn is your ticket! You can find gender-reveal popping corn at many stores, or you could make your own. Pink or blue popcorn balls or blue and pink popcorn bags filled with popcorn would be awesome for your guests.
Cookies
Depending on how much time you have and how crafty you want to be, gender-reveal cookies can tend to be a little tricky. That said, go for simple cookies, such as sugar cookies, and opt for ready-made gender-reveal cookie cutters. If you want to go for something even easier, use blue or pink icing and sprinkles and go for simple round cookies or shapes.
Gender Reveal Party Ideas
While food is great, it's the ideas and activities that can make a gender reveal party truly special. Here are some ideas to create an incredible experience for your guests.
Games and Contests
A bit of friendly competition is always a great way to get your guests in a celebratory mood. Have printed out some gender reveal quizzes or printouts that help them guess what the gender will be – and offer a prize to whoever guesses correctly.
Unique Gender Reveal Ideas

Decorations
The main focus of the party will be on what gender you are about to reveal, so why not make your party decorations all about that? Get creative by incorporating blue and pink decorations around the room. A few strings of paper lanterns, helium balloons, fabric garlands,s, and piñatas are all great options.
Smoke Bombs
If you’re looking to add a bit of pizzazz to the event, why not opt for gender reveal smoke bombs? These typically come in either blue or pink and can be used to announce the gender once the smoke is released. Keep in mind, you will need to follow local laws before setting these off, and be sure to wear protective goggles and clothing.
Gender Reveal Lasers
This high-tech option is growing in popularity and will add a wow factor to the moment. Gender reveal lasers use lasers to project either a blue or a pink laser and are a definite crowd-pleaser.
