I've been requested to make a wedding cake on december 20th. The winter here it's not that cold ( I live in Mexico) I need some help with the cake fillings that are safe (it doesn't get lower than 59°F here) . The cake will be 2 tiers chocolate and 1 tier lemon any sugestions? TIA!
if you keep the cake refrigerated you can use any filling of course -- chocolate fillings won't need to be kept chilled -- lemon curd does need to be fridged so if you're going non-fridged why don't you go for a lemon cake and lemon flavored buttercream filling using an extract and some nice zesty lemon zest -- rub the zest and some sugar between your fingers to bring out all the oils before you use it --
best baking to you
AHello Karlabakes! For a chocolate cake you can do several fillings like cajeta, dulce De leche, a layer of cajeta then fill with vanilla smbc, chocolate abuelita, kahlua flavored buttercream, nutella, peanut butter, mint the possibilities are endless! For the lemon cake raspberry, vanilla, orange, white chocolate, or turn it into a lemon poppyseed cake :D
Thank you so much!the chocolate abuelita sounds so yummy! and I love the idea of the rubbing the sugar and the zest to bring up the oils .
I'm freking out!. Today I had the cake tasting and they want a 5 tier cake! Any suggestions on the suport system? TIA!
AI like chocolate with raspberry or blueberry filling and for the lemon cake maybe mascarpone or regular cream cheese filling...? But did the bride not tell you what she wants?! That's kinda odd...
SPS saved my life this weekend! Definitely use it for any cake 3 or more tiers if you are going to put it in a vehicle and drive.

I use SPS on every tiered cake, every time. If a cake is important to my customer it's important to me. Therefore I use SPS for support. Period.
AI really like sps too. I typically only use them for larger jobs. So for this It wouldn't even be a question.
AI use bubble tea straws as supports on my cakes. If I am stacking at home I hammer two offset wooden dowels through the cake. If I am stacking at the venue I don't worry about the wooden dowels.
I have done several 5 tier cakes - all with the bubble tea straws. You can look at the pictures in my profile to see them. The straws are cheap and easy to use.
You're so kind! Thank you so much!
I'll let you know how it went after december 20th :)
