For example, Vintage/Retro cakes frequently use buttercream frosting with intricate hand-piped details, whereas modern cakes may incorporate fondant with airbrushed or sculpted designs.
Yes, Vintage/Retro cakes are suitable for outdoor settings, even in warm weather, due to their sturdy construction and stable frosting. The buttercream and ganache used for these cakes can withstand higher temperatures better than some modern cake coverings.
