  1. Prepare topping the prior night. Using a spoon, scoop out cream from the can of coconut. Discard the water that's at the bottom of the can. 
  2. Do not whisk or use an electric mixer to whip it up... it will become runny again.
  3. Instead, using a spoon fold in the diced blueberries. Mix in a couple drops of blue food coloring. Now for the swirl effect... add a couple drops each of the red and blue. Using a toothpick swirl each color throughout the cream. Place a cover on it and put back in the refrigerator to set overnight. 
Enjoy!!
