FAQs

What is the thickness of the cake drum board?

The Simply Making Square Drum Cake Boards are 12mm thick.

Can these cake boards be used for heavy tiered cakes?

Yes, the 12mm thickness provides a sturdy base suitable for supporting heavier or tiered cakes. However, always ensure the cake itself has adequate internal support.

How many times can I reuse this cake board?

These cake boards are designed to be reusable. With proper care and cleaning, they can be used multiple times.

What is the best way to clean the silver drum cake board?

Wipe the board clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the board in water.

Are there different sizes available?

Yes, these boards are available in a variety of sizes, including 6" (15cm) up to 20" (50.5cm).

Is the silver foil surface durable?

The foil surface is designed for presentation and transport. While durable for its intended use, it can be scratched by sharp or abrasive objects. Handle with care.

Can I place food directly onto the board?

It is recommended to place your cake on parchment paper or a cake barrier before placing it on the board, especially if direct contact is unavoidable, to maintain hygiene and board integrity.

Troubleshooting

Cake feels unstable on the board.

Ensure the cake is evenly distributed on the board and centered. For multi-tiered cakes, verify internal supports are properly placed.

Foil finish appears scratched after cleaning.

Use only a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid any abrasive materials or harsh chemicals. For minor scuffs, a gentle buff with a dry microfiber cloth may help.

Board has frosting or residue that won't wipe off easily.

Slightly dampen the cloth with warm water. For stubborn spots, a very mild dish soap can be used sparingly on the damp cloth, followed by a thorough wipe with a clean damp cloth.

Board has a slight warp.

Ensure the board is stored flat and not under heavy weight. Minor warping may resolve on its own when stored correctly. Avoid storing in humid conditions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhances cake presentation with a professional, elegant finish.
  • Provides excellent structural support for multi-tiered or heavy cakes.
  • Reusable nature offers long-term value and reduces waste.
  • Wide array of sizes accommodates various cake dimensions.
  • Simple cleaning process for repeated use.

Cons

  • Requires careful cleaning to avoid damaging the foil finish.
  • May be heavier than standard cake boards, adding to transport weight.
  • The silver foil can potentially scratch if handled roughly.
  • Not suitable for direct food contact without a protective layer.
  • Specific sizes might have limited availability compared to more common options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No assembly required. This product is ready to use straight out of the packaging. Place your baked and decorated cake directly onto the board, ensuring it is centered for optimal stability and presentation.

Compatibility: Compatible with most standard cake sizes, ranging from 6 inches up to 20 inches in diameter. It is designed to hold cakes of varying weights and tiers. For very heavy or complex tiered cakes, consider using multiple boards or ensuring adequate internal support within the cake itself.

Care: To clean, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away any crumbs or frosting residue. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the silver foil surface. Do not immerse the board in water, as this may damage the material. Allow the board to air dry completely before storing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its condition.
