Product Information
Full details
This LARRYROO Red Square Cake Board Drum is designed for bakers needing a robust and visually appealing base for their creations. Its key benefit is exceptional strength, capable of supporting heavy cakes, while its vibrant red foil finish adds a festive touch. A potential caveat is that the vibrant foil may show fingerprints or smudges more easily than plain finishes. This product is a single, high-quality square drum featuring thick fibre board construction and a decorative foil covering.

FAQs
Is this cake board reusable?
No, this cake board is designed for single use. It is not intended for washing or repeated use.
What is the thickness of the cake board?
The cake board is 13mm thick, providing substantial strength.
Can I place a fruit cake directly on the board?
Yes, the board is strong enough to support heavy fruit cakes. The white paper base is food-safe.
What other colours are available?
This model is available in a variety of colours including Silver, Gold, Pink, Purple, Light Blue, Green, and Dark Blue, subject to availability.
How do I clean the board if it gets dirty?
The board is for single use and not meant to be cleaned. Handle with clean hands to prevent smudges. If minor smudges occur, a lightly damp, soft cloth can be used carefully, but avoid saturating the material.
What sizes does this cake board come in?
The LARRYROO cake boards are available in sizes ranging from 4 inches to 20 inches, depending on stock availability.
Troubleshooting
Board appears to be bending under cake weight.
Ensure the cake's weight is evenly distributed. For very heavy cakes or tiered structures, verify that internal support (like dowels) has been correctly inserted into the cake layers resting on the board.
Foil surface is smudged or marked.
Handle the board with clean, dry hands. If minor smudges occur, a very lightly dampened, soft cloth can be used for a quick wipe, but avoid excessive moisture. For significant marks, consider using a different board if appearance is critical.
Board is damaged upon arrival.
Inspect the packaging before accepting delivery if possible. If damage is present, contact the seller for a replacement or return.

Care: This product is intended for single use. Do not attempt to wash or reuse. To maintain its appearance, handle with clean hands to avoid smudging the foil. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture before use.
