5. Stir in diced chicken, almonds, curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper, blending well. Chill 30 minutes, or until the mixture is syrupy-thick; blend in the mayonnaise.
6. Beat egg whites until stiff in large bowl; fold in chicken mixture until no streaks of white remain.
7. Beat cream until stiff in medium-size bowl; fold into chicken mixture.
8. Pour into a 6-cup ring mold; chill several hours, or until firm.
9.Unmold onto serving plate; fit a shallow bowl into center of mold; fill with pineapple chunks; sprinkle with coconut.
