FAQs
What is the exact thickness of the board?
The board is approximately 3mm thick, though some units may be closer to 4mm.
Can I place my cake directly on the silver surface?
Yes, the silver foil covering is food safe and allows direct contact with your cake.
What size cake should I use this board for?
This 10-inch board is suitable for cakes up to 10 inches in diameter, or as a base for tiered cakes. A general rule is to use a board two inches larger than the cake tier.
Can this board support heavy fruit cakes?
This board is best suited for lighter cakes or for building cake tiers. For very heavy cakes, a thicker, more robust board might be necessary.
How should I clean the cake board?
Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid getting the wood core wet.
Does the silver finish scratch easily?
While durable for its intended use, handle with care to maintain the pristine silver finish. Avoid abrasive cleaning materials.
What is the material of the board?
The board is made from compressed wood covered with a food-safe silver foil.
Troubleshooting
Board feels slightly flexible
This board is designed for lighter cakes or tiers. Ensure you are not overloading it. For heavier cakes, consider a thicker, sturdier base material.
Surface appears uneven
Gently wipe the surface with a dry cloth. Minor imperfections in the foil finish are possible due to manufacturing.
Accidental moisture contact
Immediately wipe the board dry with a soft cloth. Allow it to air dry completely before use to prevent damage to the wood core.
