"Luv Bug" Car Cake

Prefer the DVD? Click Here!

Can you hear the cute "beep beep" by just looking at this adorable Volkswagen car cake? Susan Carberry brings the "Luv Bug" to life with her sculpting skills, and shows you exactly how to achieve the same look for yourself.

The car antenna turns into bug antennae with a a flip of the wire, and the car is reminiscent of the early "Beetle" cars festooned with stickers - only there's no mistaking the "love" connection. It would be a perfect Valentine or engagement cake for a lucky couple!

Susan utilizes sculpting, fondant and other "tricks of the trade" to make this cake. It's best to have the "Cake Decorating Made Easy!" basics under your belt, or have other cake decorating experience to get the most out of this video set!

Meet the Decorator...
For eight years, Susan Carberry was the Lead Cake Designer for a bakery in Dana Point, California, helping it to grow to one of the most sought-out bakeries in Orange County.

During that time, she gave Sugar Art Instruction and Demonstrations across the nation.

Her "Edible Works of Art" have won numerous awards and have been featured in magazines such as American Cake Decorating, as well as on the Food Network's show, "Top Five". And, as you'll see, in addition to being a World-Class cake and cookie decorator, Susan has a real knack for making her lessons F-U-N!

SLUG BUG May 4, 2011
Reviewer: Granma's Cakes from Cleveland, TX United States  
My grandchildren are into the old 'slug bug' past time when traveling.  The 4 year old wanted me to make him a 'red one' for his birthday so I began gathering images.  I found the  Luv Bug' video and the stress of a car cake was minimized.  This video was a valuable tool to add to my box.  I've since made a green 'flower power' one for a grandaughter in half the time. Thanks for the wonderful resources you provide.

THE BUG May 3, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Cortland, NY United States  
I owned a VW Bug for 10 years from 1966 to 76 and loved driving it.  I made this cake for my husband's last birthday.  Although the directions are clear and easy to follow, this cake is not for the faint of heart.  The most difficult part for me was getting the proportions correct while carving the cake.  A slow approach is wise taking a little at a time while doing the carving.  It helps to put it back in the freezer for short intervals if you take too much time and the cake begins to thaw.  Trying to carve a room temperature cake is a mess... it crumbles.  If you have the nerve it is well worth attempting this cake.

Old Hippie March 30, 2010
Reviewer: laura bender from WI United States  
Being an old hippie, I was fascinated when this video came out.  I spend alot of time watching all the new cake shows, but felt very intimidated about doing a cake such as this.  The way the video explains the cake, it is so easy!  What a way to learn sculpturing.

Luvly! March 25, 2010
Reviewer: Brandee Dent from Utopia, ON Canada  
Great set! Susan teaches you how to make the most adorable bug! I wouldn't recommend it for beginning cake decorators though, as it involves a lot of cake sculpting. My mom loved this cake!
