Product Information

Full details

This LARRYROO Cake Drum Board & White Box Combo is designed for bakers and cake decorators who need a robust and attractive way to transport and present their creations. Its key benefit is superior strength and protection for cakes of all types, from light sponges to heavy fruitcakes. A minor caveat is that while the drum is strong, the box itself is designed for transport protection and may not be suitable for direct stacking of very heavy items without additional support. This combo includes a high-quality, 13mm thick cake drum with a silver foil finish and a matching white cake box with a lid, providing a secure and visually appealing solution for event cakes.

FAQs

What material is the cake drum made of?

The cake drum is made from strong fibre board inners, covered with a decorative silver foil on the top and sides, and white paper on the base.

How thick is the cake drum?

The cake drum is approximately 13mm thick, providing substantial strength and support for heavy cakes.

Can I reuse this cake box and drum combo?

Yes, with careful use and cleaning, both the cake drum and the box can be reused for future baking projects.

What sizes are available for this product?

This combo is available in a wide range of sizes, from 6 inches up to 20 inches in diameter.

Is the silver foil finish easy to clean?

The silver foil finish can be wiped clean with a slightly damp cloth. It's best to avoid harsh scrubbing to maintain its appearance.

Can this box hold very heavy stacked cakes?

The 13mm thick drum is very strong and designed to support heavy cakes. The box provides protection, but for extremely heavy or tall stacked cakes, ensuring the cake is stable on the drum is key, and additional support within the box might be considered if stacking multiple boxes.

Can I decorate or customize the box and drum?

Yes, the white box and silver drum surface are ideal for customization. You can easily add branded stickers or tie ribbons around them.

Troubleshooting

Cake shifts inside the box during transport.

Ensure the cake is securely adhered to the drum with a small amount of icing. Use a box size that closely matches the drum diameter for a snug fit. Consider adding cushioning like parchment paper around the cake if there is significant space.

Drum or box appears flimsy.

Verify that you are using the correct size drum for your cake. The 13mm thickness is designed for significant weight, but ensure no damage has occurred during shipping or handling.

Foil finish is scratched or damaged.

Handle the drum with care, avoiding abrasive contact. Minor scuffs may occur with regular use; consider adding decorative elements like ribbons to cover slight imperfections if re-using.

Box lid does not fit securely.

Ensure the cake and drum are correctly positioned within the base of the box. Check for any obstructions. If the lid is bent, gently try to reshape it; however, significant damage may require replacement.
