Wild Kratts party

For my oldest son's 5th birthday we did a Wild Kratts party! Basically it was super easy b.c Wild Kratts uses animals of all sorts on their shows, so we did quite a bit of wild safari type of decorating, but decided to do a cool coral snake birthday cake.

 For the goodie bags, I bought these bags at Amazon and inside I had the animal print note pads, then raided the $1 store for simple things, like animals or small snakes.  I actually found a neat book on animals that I put in each bag too.

For the snake, we used 2 bunt cake pans. Cut each in half, for a total of 4 segments, then added them all together. I frosted the bottom of the foil lined cardboard, to keep the snake in place since it was so big!  For the grass, I just bought coconut shreds and added green food coloring.  We made a tongue with a fruit strip.   For cake mix, I used Betty Crocker GF vanilla mix.  I use flax goo to make it egg free. I feel that binds better than any other egg substitute.
