Volkswagen Cake


This is my first Car Cake. It is for a six-year-old girl called Panayiota. Happy Birthday, Panayiota!!



Everything on this cake was homemade, even the fondant.  I used marshmallows, vanilla essence, water, and icing sugar to create the fondant.  The VW car was decorated with vegetable cream combined with a bit of fresh cream and icing sugar.


As I was told the girl liked the cake a lot. I hope you like it too!!!
