I had the same question.
This link from the University of Michigan's Germanic Languages and Literatures Department suggests that adjectives without determiners generally follow the em/er/en endings in the dative case.
Unfortunately for you and I, it appears there are a few exceptions:
- Viel and wenig take no adjective endings in the singular when they are not preceded by a determiner (which they usually aren't). They take regular adjective endings in the plural.
- Hoch drops the "c" and adjectives ending in -el or -er drop their final "e" when they take adjective endings.
- Some adjectives never take endings, e.g. prima [=great], lila [=purple], rosa [=pink], orange, beige
