Okay here goes...
I make a buttercream that is very tasty and crusts very well, BUT
when delivering cakes in this heat it always seems to slide off my cake.
I would greatly appreciate any information from anyone who has the same heat to deal with, how you keep your cakes cold during delivery.
My Truck is air conditioned but with the heat and a few little bumps, disaster awaits me every time.
HELP PLEASE... How do I keep my cakes chilled during delivery? icon_cry.gif

You didn't ask, but indydebi has an all-crisco crusting buttercream recipe that holds up VERY well in extreme heat. Check it out. It is a favorite on this site. Good luck!
