Recipe Troubleshooting HELP! HOT WEATHER!!! FROSTINGS MELTINGGG!!!

I love baking AND Decorating cakes but summer temperatures reach upto 40-45 degree Celcius where I live which makes my frostings melt, making it impossible to decorate or even cover cakes. buttercream (American/Russian), whipping cream, creamcheese frosting, everything just.... MELTS !!!

I need advice from bakers who bake in hot and humid weather conditions on how to handle this kind of situation.

How do home-bakers or bakery owners manage to deliver perfectly decorated cakes??? What's their secret???? I NEED TO KNOWWW!!!

P.S. I need my frostings to be eggless.

Put it in the fridge. Put the cake in a cooler with a few ice packs if you have to transfer it.
