This guide is for bakers and cake decorators seeking a robust and attractive base for their creations. The Larryroo Cake Board Round Thick Drum offers superior strength and a stylish silver finish, ensuring your cakes are supported and presented beautifully. A potential caveat is that the 13mm thickness, while strong, might be more substantial than needed for very light cakes.

The cake board is constructed with fibre board inners, covered with colourful foil on the top and sides, and white paper on the base.
It is designed to be very strong and is suitable for supporting even heavy fruit cakes and multi-tiered constructions due to its 13mm thickness.
While the foil surface is generally safe, it is recommended to use a layer of baking parchment or wax paper between the cake and the drum for direct contact, especially with moist cakes, to ensure optimal hygiene and prevent sticking.
Yes, the cake drum can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and reused, provided it is not heavily soiled or damaged.
The cake boards are available in a range of sizes from 4 inches to 20 inches, subject to availability.
Yes, this product line is available in a variety of colours including gold, red, pink, purple, light blue, rose gold, green, and dark blue, in addition to silver.
Ensure the cake is centered and has cooled completely before placing it on the drum. For very moist cakes, consider a light dusting of icing sugar or a layer of baking parchment on the drum's surface.
Handle the drum with care, especially during transport and decoration. Minor smudges can often be wiped away with a slightly damp cloth. For significant scratches, consider covering the drum with fondant or additional decorative elements.
While the thickness provides superior strength, for very light, small cakes (e.g., a single-layer 4-inch sponge), a thinner board might suffice. However, this drum will still provide excellent support and a professional finish.
Setup: No assembly is required. The cake drum is ready to use straight out of the packaging. Place your baked cake directly onto the foil-covered top surface. For direct contact with certain moist cake types, consider lining the drum with parchment or wax paper.
Compatibility: This cake drum is compatible with all types of cakes, from light sponge to dense fruitcakes. It is designed to fit various cake sizes, with available diameters ranging from 4 inches to 20 inches.
Care: To clean, wipe the surface gently with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking the board, as this can damage the foil covering and fibreboard. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its appearance.
