Egg Free Birthday Party Link Up

My little gal turned 7 this week and to celebrate we held a small party with her favourite friends.  One of her friends has an egg allergy, so this called for me to be a bit more thoughtful with the party food.

I loved that I was able to still do a couple of our favourite party staples:

Honey Joys and Fairy Bread:


Finding the right egg free cake recipe was a bit more difficult.  I had read that some egg substitutes still contain egg whites and to be on the look out for ingredients with "ov" at the beginning (as in ovum).  I chose this recipe from Eggless Cooking for it's simple ingredients and good reviews as a crumble free cake, good for cutting up.

The birthday girl asked for a butterfly cake with a rainbow.
I found the cake tasty and pretty easy to cut up.  The cooking time for mine was way over their instructed time.  I think this was due to using 100ml extra of condensed milk and using a square pan instead of a rectangle.  So mine was a little "crisp" on the outside!



These mountain bread pinwheels (minus the ranch dressing and cheese; I added yoghurt and garlic powder) are a great idea, easy to eat and so delicious.

I also made a fruit platter, a bowl of lollies and corn chips for a great selection of goodies for everyone.


Add a craft table;


 A little bit of swimming


 Pass the parcel; and we had a very successful party!


 So there you have it, some ideas for you for your next egg free party! (And mine if I have to do it all again next year).  Do you have more egg free party recipe ideas?  Link them up below for a great "Egg Free" directory!
