- How to make a VW campervan cake, I actually gave the camper van a little love heart instead of the Wolkswagen plate, along with headlights that look a bit like eyes as I thought it was cute. You can do the same without adding these bits if you prefer :)
VW campervan cakes are quite popular so I decided to give it a go and make a CZcams tutorial out of it, enjoy :) You can find a very basic sponge cake recipe below.

when your cut your loaf cake the ends looked straight and you didnt do any more carving. However when you cover with the fondant it looks like you've shaped the ends. I'm going to be making this as a trial this weekend so just wondered if you did actually carve and shape both ends? Also you used 2 small loaf tins, did each loaf tin take 1 x amount of the recipe above or did you spilt it between both tins? looks fab!!
Zoe, I used this tutorial to make a VW bus for my parents’ 50th anniversary this past weekend and it turned out so, so perfect thanks to you! My parents drove their VW from Ohio to NC to elope at 19 years old in 1971 and then camped across the country out to the west coast and back again. They now have 5 children and 10 grandchildren. All of the sweet little details, like using the cling wrap to make things more bubbly, etc. took it to another level!
This is a great tutorial Zoe. I can't tell you how many times I've watched this for reference for other "auto" cakes. I'm currently working on a Jeep and I scoured the internet looking for SOMETHING to help me...but, right back to this one AGAIN. Lol. Thanks so much for great instructions as ALWAYS
Really good tutorial! I like the fact that you don’t pontificate and just give us the directions! I’m going to be making one that looks like a 1960s hippie VW, so I’ll probably just use a single multicolor piece of fondant for the body. Hope it comes out well… But you’ve helped significantly!
Thank you so much! Hope it turns out great ❤️
Love this! I think the cut flowers were perfect for grass and great tip on using the clear wrap to make the cut outs more round. I really enjoy learning new techniques from your videos. you're SO talented!
Thanks Jeannie I am so glad you picked up some tips from the tutorial :D

I wish I'd seen something like this 3 years ago. My attempt wasn't nearly as neat! I know what you mean about hot fondant though. I made mine in August and had similar problems. Great tutorial, I find your commentary really helpful, whatever you're showing us ❤
the cutest vw I've seen😊, almost seems as if it belongs in disney cars
Thanks for watching, that would be cool :D
Just wanted to say how easy you make this look! You have a real talent. I am not a baker at all but was inspired to try this for myself and mine did not look as great as yours. Well done, you have a real talent!
You make everything look so easy and effortless
Awesome tutorial. Thank you. I had no idea where to start with this when asked to do it and I am so pleased with the result. Xx

Thanku so much Zoe for sharing this..i always wanted u do a tutorial on this..love u:)
Haha you're very welcome, thanks so much for the support!
Hi Zoe what is that item that you use black pump to get a smooth rope?

I've just made it for a girls birthday :) She's so happy
I shared this with two people that I know who love VW's. :-)
Do you carve the cake at all? How many would you say this would serve?
I'm not surprised it was so warm in horsforth
it looks awesome! but I do have a question...is modeling clay the same as fondant?
is Just awesome!! 😊 😍 thank you!
How gorgeous!!!!! 🥰
an adorable cake, yet again!! Just wondering though did you shape/carve the cake at all?
Zoe, what size are the frankly sweet circles you used for this cake? I am unable to purchase this and would like to make this cake for my husband’s bday. Thank for any help with this
Is the cake a square or is it shaved a bit so the top is smaller?
wow I definately need to give this a try. keep up your fab work x
Muy lindo.
fantastic... love it
