3. In a small bowl, beat milk and pudding mix at low speed for 2 minutes, then fold into cheese mixture.

4. Spoon onto cooled pie crust; sprinkle with toasted coconut.

5. Peel orange and slice thin, removing all white pith and seeds. Arrange slices on top of coconut along with kiwi slices. Halve grapes and press, cut side down, in a decorative pattern. Place whole or half strawberries in a pattern also. Lightly sift powdered sugar over the top of pizza; cover loosely with plastic wrap and chill until serving time.
