FAQs

What is the primary benefit of this cake drum's thickness?

The 13mm thickness provides exceptional strength and stability, making it ideal for supporting heavy cakes like fruitcakes or multi-tiered cakes, preventing sagging or collapse.

Can I use this cake drum for fondant-covered cakes?

Yes, the smooth foil surface is suitable for placing fondant-covered cakes. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before positioning the cake.

How many cake drums do I receive per order?

Each order is for one single square drum. You will need to purchase multiple drums if you are creating a tiered cake.

What is the difference between this drum and a standard cake board?

This drum is significantly thicker (13mm) and made from stronger fibre board compared to standard cake boards, offering superior support for heavier baked goods.

Are the coloured foil sides washable?

The foil covering can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or soaking, as this can damage the foil.

What occasions is this cake drum suitable for?

It is suitable for a wide range of occasions including birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, Christmas, baby showers, and parties, adding a decorative touch to any celebration.

Can I cut this cake drum to a custom size?

It is not recommended to cut the cake drum, as this may compromise its structural integrity and the foil finish.

Troubleshooting

Foil surface appears scratched

Handle with care during transport and storage. Minor scuffs may be unavoidable with use but do not typically affect structural integrity. For important displays, consider using a cake topper or arranging decorations to cover the board surface.

Board feels slightly flexible under very heavy load

Ensure the cake is centered on the drum to distribute weight evenly. For exceptionally heavy or large cakes, consider using multiple boards or a reinforced cake structure.

Moisture or grease marks on the surface

Wipe immediately with a clean, slightly damp cloth. Ensure the surface is thoroughly dried before placing a cake on it to prevent transfer to the cake or base.
