FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the 12mm thickness?

How do I clean the Larryroo Round Cake Drum Board?

Wipe the board clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging it in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

Can I decorate the cake drum board?

What is the range of sizes available?

The Larryroo Round Cake Drum Boards are available in a wide range of sizes, from 4 inches up to 20 inches in diameter.

Is this board suitable for fondant-covered cakes?

Yes, it provides a firm and stable surface that is excellent for supporting cakes decorated with fondant.

Troubleshooting

Cake appears to be tilting on the board.

Ensure the cake drum board is placed on a perfectly level surface. Verify that the cake itself is centered and evenly distributed on the board.

Board feels slightly flexible under very heavy weight.

Confirm you are using the appropriate size board for the cake's weight and dimensions. For extremely heavy cakes, consider doubling up boards or using a thicker base if available.

Difficulty covering the board smoothly with fondant.

Ensure the board surface is clean and dry. Apply a thin layer of edible glue or piping gel to help the fondant adhere smoothly.
