I have a question and I feel sure this has been addressed before but here goes. What buttercream recipe do you recommend to use that holds up to heat? I will be doing a wedding cake May 30 that will be done in buttercream. Is there a recipe that does better than others? Any suggestions are welcome. Or ideas on how to store and serve.

any advise? anyone?

an outside wedding? butterless buttercream would hold up best.

an inside air conditioned wedding? any b/c would suffice.

I've never made a wedding cake, so I have no idea. However, I have read many threads that said that indydebi's recipe holds up great. Hopefully, someone on here will have an answer for you.

You might try going to the Cake Decorating forum. Buttercream is frequently talked about over there. I have heard great things about indydebi's as well. And I agree with what all4cake says.

I was thinking about a butterless buttercream or a low butter buttercream. Thanks all4cake.


I will check in the cake decorating forum. Thanks Redlotusninjagrl

Thanks to you all!!!

Definitely indydebi's recipe!
