Product Information
Full details
The Larryroo Cake Board is designed for bakers seeking a robust and attractive foundation for their cakes. Its primary benefit is exceptional strength, capable of supporting even heavy fruit cakes, ensuring safe transport. A potential consideration is that it is sold as a single unit, so multiple boards may need to be purchased for larger projects.

FAQs
What is the primary material of the Larryroo Cake Board?
The board is constructed with strong inner fibre board, covered with a colourful patterned foil on the top and sides, and white paper on the base.
Can this cake board support a heavy fruit cake?
Yes, the 13mm thickness is specifically designed to be strong enough for all types of cakes, including heavier fruit cakes.
Is the foil covering waterproof?
The foil covering is water-resistant and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. However, the board should not be soaked or exposed to excessive moisture.
How many cake boards are included in one purchase?
Each purchase is for one (1) single round drum cake board.
What sizes are available?
The boards are available in sizes ranging from 4 inches to 20 inches in diameter, subject to availability.
Are there different colour options available?
Yes, the boards are available in a variety of vibrant colours including silver, gold, red, cerise, light pink, purple, light blue, rose gold, green, and dark blue, in addition to brown.
Can I reuse this cake board?
While durable, cake boards are typically intended for single use, especially for hygienic reasons with direct cake contact. Minor cleaning allows for potential reuse for practice or non-edible projects.
Troubleshooting
Board feels flimsy or bends under weight
Ensure you are using the correct thickness board for your cake's weight. The 13mm drums are designed for heavy cakes; double-check that the cake is centered on the board for even weight distribution.
Foil covering is scratched or peeling
Handle the board with care during transport and decoration. If minor scratches occur, they may be hidden with careful frosting application. For significant damage, consider using a decorative topper or a new board.
Cake sticks to the board after removal
Use a piece of parchment paper or a non-stick cake liner between the cake and the board during baking and assembly. This provides an extra layer of separation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Larryroo Cake Board requires no setup. It is ready to use directly out of the packaging. Place your cake directly onto the foil-covered surface or atop a non-stick liner if preferred. Ensure the board is placed on a stable, flat surface for decorating and transport.
Compatibility: This cake board is compatible with all types of cake recipes, from light sponge cakes to dense fruit cakes. It is suitable for use with fondant, buttercream, ganache, and other frosting types. The board itself is available in various sizes to match your specific baking tin dimensions.
Care: To maintain the board's appearance and integrity:
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Do not soak the board in water, as this can damage the fibre board inner.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the foil.
- For sticky residues, a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth wipe and thorough drying.
