FAQs
What material is the LARRYROO Cake Board Square Drum made of?
It is made with high-quality fibre board inners, covered with colorful foil on the top and sides, and white paper on the base.
How thick is the cake drum?
Each drum is approximately 13mm thick, providing substantial strength.
Can I use this board for a heavy fruitcake?
Yes, its 13mm thickness and strong construction make it suitable for supporting heavier cakes like fruitcakes.
Is this product reusable?
While designed as a disposable base for cakes, it can be wiped clean with a damp cloth for non-food related decorative uses if handled carefully.
What sizes are available?
The LARRYROO Cake Board Square Drum is available in sizes ranging from 4 inches to 20 inches, subject to availability.
Does the foil covering affect food safety?
The foil covering is food-safe and designed to safely support cakes. Always ensure the surface is clean before placing your cake.
Can I cut the cake board to a different shape?
It is not recommended to cut the cake board, as this can compromise its structural integrity and the foil covering.
How many cake boards come in a pack?
This product is sold as a pack of one single square drum.
Troubleshooting
Cake appears unstable on the board.
Ensure the board is placed on a flat, stable surface. For heavier cakes, consider using a food-safe adhesive like royal icing between the cake and the board for extra security.
Foil covering is slightly creased upon arrival.
Minor creases in the foil are generally superficial and do not affect the board's structural integrity. If significant damage is present, contact the retailer.
Board feels flimsy for a very heavy cake.
While strong, extremely heavy cakes may require doubling up on boards or using a thicker, professional-grade drum if available. Always check the weight capacity for your specific cake.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No specific setup is required for the LARRYROO Cake Board Square Drum. It is ready to use straight out of the packaging. Place your cake directly onto the foil-covered top surface. For additional stability or to prevent sticking, a light dusting of icing sugar or a small amount of buttercream can be applied to the surface before placing the cake.
Compatibility: This cake drum is compatible with all types of cakes, including sponge, madeira, fruitcake, and novelty cakes. It is designed to support cakes of various weights and sizes within its specified range (4" - 20"). It works well with standard cake tins and decorating tools.
Care: The LARRYROO Cake Board Square Drum is designed for single use primarily as a cake base. However, if you wish to reuse it for non-food purposes or practice, clean the foil surface gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the board, as this can damage the foil covering and compromise the integrity of the fibre board. Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
