I just found out that I can ship cakes across country (I live in Taiwan) on refrigerated or frozen trucks for real cheap ($7 for a 6" in a box within a box). However, I prefer to use just buttercream, when possible, which makes them harder to pack. Has anyone mailed a buttercream cake? I've read plenty on here of how to ship a fondant covered cake (which is what I shipped), but couldn't get anything to come up on a search for buttercream. Any suggestions? Frozen or refrigerated? How to pack? Thanks!

I will try shipping it frozen then. Sometimes, though, because of the high heat and humidity here, frozen decorated cakes can be tricky to thaw. They tend to bleed a lot, even properly covered and let gradually come to room temp. I might as well try it, though, right?
