This LARRYROO Black Square Thick Drum cake board is designed for bakers who need a robust and reliable base for their creations. Its key benefit is its exceptional strength, capable of supporting even heavy fruit cakes. A potential consideration is that it is sold individually, so multiple boards need to be purchased for tiered cakes. This high-quality cake drum features a thick fibre board core, wrapped in a durable, colorful foil with a pattern on the top and sides, and a white paper base, ensuring both stability and a professional appearance.

The LARRYROO cake boards are available in various sizes, ranging from 4 inches to 20 inches in diameter. Please check the product listing for specific available sizes.
This specific model, the Thick Drum, is 13mm thick, making it exceptionally strong.
Yes, its 13mm thickness and strong fibre board construction are specifically designed to support heavy cakes like fruit cakes safely.
The foil covering is designed for use with cakes. It is recommended to place a cake layer or parchment paper directly between the cake and the board for direct contact, especially for moist cakes.
Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid getting the board wet, as it can damage the material.
While designed for single use for maximum hygiene and stability, the sturdy construction might allow for careful cleaning and reuse for practice bakes or non-critical applications.
The base of the cake board is covered with white paper.
Ensure you are using the correct size board for your cake and that the cake is centered. For very heavy cakes, confirm you are using the 13mm thick drum variant and that it's placed on a level surface.
Handle the board with care during decoration and transport. If minor damage occurs, it may be possible to cover it with frosting or decorative elements. For significant damage, consider using a new board.
Verify that you have the 13mm thick drum variant. If the board still feels insufficient for your cake's weight, consider using a larger diameter drum or reinforcing the base with additional support.
Setup: No assembly is required. Simply place your baked cake directly onto the board. Ensure the cake is cooled completely before placing it on the drum. For tiered cakes, use appropriately sized drums for each tier, stacking them securely as per your cake design.
Compatibility: This cake board is compatible with all types of cakes, from light sponges to dense fruit cakes. It is suitable for use with standard fondant, buttercream, and other cake decorating mediums. Ensure the size of the drum chosen matches or slightly exceeds the base of your cake.
Care: To maintain its condition, wipe the board gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth if necessary. Avoid soaking the board in water, as this can damage the fibre board and foil. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent warping or discoloration.
