It means you receive one individual round cake board. 'Drum' refers to its thick, sturdy construction.
The foil covering is designed for cake presentation. While generally safe, it is recommended to place a layer of baking paper or fondant directly between the cake and the board if direct contact is a concern.
Yes, these thick drums are strong enough to support subsequent cake tiers. It's standard practice to use dowels within the lower cake tiers for added support when stacking.
Select a cake board that is approximately 2 inches larger in diameter than the cake you are placing on it. This provides a decorative border and space for handling.
While the board itself is sturdy, the foil covering is typically for single use in presentation. It is not designed for repeated washing and reuse like a reusable cake board.
The 'Thick Drum' designation indicates a superior level of strength and rigidity (13mm thickness) compared to standard, thinner cake boards, making it ideal for heavier cakes and tiered structures.
Ensure the board is placed on a flat surface. Minor warping from shipping often resolves when a cake's weight is applied evenly. If significant, contact customer support.
If the scratch is minor and on the edge, it may not be noticeable once the cake is decorated. For significant scratches on the main surface, consider covering the board with fondant or a decorative border.
Apply a small dab of buttercream or royal icing to the center of the board before placing the cake. This creates a non-slip surface.
Setup: This cake board requires no assembly. Simply place your baked and cooled cake directly onto the foil-covered surface. For tiered cakes, secure each cake tier to the board using a small amount of buttercream or royal icing to prevent slippage.
Compatibility: The LarryRoo cake boards are compatible with all types of cakes, including sponge, fruit, chocolate, and novelty cakes. They are designed to be used with standard cake decorating tools and equipment.
