What Time Can I Take It Out Of The Fridge?

Hi,
it's my son's birthday party tonight and I will be serving the cake at around 7pm. It's a chocolate cake filled with SMBC that I made yesterday and refrigerated overnight in the Wilton cake taker (I'm hoping this will have helped the cake retain moisture!)
SMBC, when refrigerated, gets super hard. I usually fill my cakes with something whipped-creamed based, but had a ganache disaster so just filled the cakes with SMBC.
I would like the cake to come to room temperature for serving. How long in advance can I take it out so that it's fully at room temp at serving (7 pm)? Can it sit out for more than 2 hours?
It's such a shame that SMBC's texture changes so much as it gets rave reviews around here - but I find the 'chunk of icing on your plate' texture kind of embarrassing.
Thanks!!
It's just as stable as the "regular" buttercream. And I agree--it's like cutting ice cold butter straight from the fridge.
