Hi Annie, you might consider adding some butter-flavored shortening to your frosting to help it keep its shape. It has a relatively high melting point, so it's handy for preventing frosting from melting or getting soft. You also might want to experiment with different brands of dairy-free cream cheese, as some tend to be softer than others. We ended up using WayFare Dairy-Free Cream Cheese in some of the recipes here, and it behaved very similar to conventional cream cheese. Last resort? Opt for a frosting recipe like Swiss Buttercream and use Earth Balance Vegan Buttery Sticks in place of the butter. We hope this helps, and good luck! Kye@KAF
