We present temperature and mass density profiles of three-dimensional radiative transfer models of natal super star clusters. Together with calculated spectral energy distributions (SEDs), these profiles allow us to analyse the transfer of radiation in a dusty cluster envelope across a variety of physical parameters, including size, total dust mass, and the ratio of clumpy to smooth dust. Degeneracies in the infrared flux (and therefore also color) due to viewing angle are a direct result of the clumpy nature of the envelope. These models therefore act to caution the observer about the limits of using infrared diagnostic tools to understand natal super star clusters.
