Easy Confetti Pie
Sugar cone crust makes a pie that tastes like birthday cake when you add a colorful, creamy no-bake confetti filling. —Gina Nistico, Taste of Home Food Editor

Reviews
The almond extract is what is giving this pie the icky, weird taste no one likes. Add the butter flavoring and you have almost a trifecta of weird flavor additions! the pie is wonderful- WITHOUT the almond flavoring. The almond gives it a strong, "off" flavoring. This is a pie that looks pretty, but no one likes- not even children.
This was a huge hit with my husband and my stepsons for my husband's 4th of July birthday! However, I did not care for it. I agree something about it, texture or something that sets you aside with it, at least for me. I will make again for my family of course! Thank you for the recipe.
This was very good. As my grand son said, “I don’t love it”. It’s very pretty and the texture was perfect. I will make it again but think I’ll try lemon or orange extract instead of almond.
I have not made this exact recipe however reading everyone else's comments I have a suggestion.I love the Ice Cream Cone crushed for the crust.I would instead of using a gelatin why not get Birthday Cake Ice Cream
I really wanted to love this, but couldn't. I made this as dessert for 3 adults and 5 kids. No one really liked it. I'm not sure what it is, but it really just wasn't very good. Everyone LOVED the crust, but no one really liked the filling.
We didn't really care for the taste of it ... all three of us. Nothing wrong with the recipe.
