Hi all I have a friend that want a maroon an brown wedding cake she wants it really tall but it only need to feed 150 however she only want vanilla cake and vanilla butter cream no chocolate allowed it's for mid Aug. in Los Angeles Aug here it may hit 100 degrees easy at 4:00 pm those are both dark colors any ideas i have a great idea for a cake but the colors im seeing those dark colors running in the heat help thanks

You should probably do fondant, because those colors are going to take a lot of food coloring if you use buttercream and no chocolate icing.

Edited to add: With that heat, I wouldn't do it unless it was fondant, the buttercream will melt no matter what you do. I'd tell her that it's fondant or nothing.

I agree, definitely fondant. I also suggest airbrushing if you can with your design. A lot less color and a lot less work.

cool aid and...tacos?

ill try to talk her into fondant but she really a buttercream girl
