Product Information

Full details

These LARRYROO Silver Square Cake Boards are designed for bakers seeking a professional and sturdy foundation for their creations. The key benefit is the 'turned edge' finish, which provides a clean, finished look and added durability. A potential caveat is the 2mm thickness, which is suitable for most cakes but might require additional support for extremely heavy tiered structures. This guide covers their features, usage, and care to help you get the most out of your cake decorating.

FAQs

What material are the LARRYROO cake boards made of?

The boards are made of sturdy cake board material, covered in a foil wrap with a 'turned edge' finish.

Can I cut on this cake board?

It is not recommended to cut directly on the cake board, as this can damage the foil surface. Use a cutting board for any cake preparation or carving.

Are these boards food safe?

The boards are designed as a support base for cakes. Direct food contact is not intended; always place your cake on a layer of baking paper or a cake liner before placing it on the board.

How do I clean the cake boards?

Wipe the boards clean with a damp cloth. Do not immerse them in water or use harsh cleaning chemicals.

What is the 'turned edge' feature?

The 'turned edge' means the foil is wrapped around the entire edge of the board, creating a smooth, finished seam for a more professional appearance and to prevent fraying.

Can these boards be used for tiered cakes?

Yes, they can be used for tiered cakes, but for cakes with significant weight or height, it's advisable to use thicker cake drums or to stack multiple boards for added strength and stability.

What are the available sizes?

The boards are available in sizes ranging from 4 inches up to 10 inches in diameter or width for square boards.

Troubleshooting

Board is slightly bent or warped.

Gently try to flatten the board by placing it on a flat surface and applying even pressure. For significant warping, consider using a heavier board or adding internal support to your cake.

Foil finish is scratched.

Minor scratches may be unavoidable with use. For aesthetic purposes on a display cake, try to position the board so the scratch is less visible or place the cake strategically. This board is primarily functional, so minor cosmetic blemishes may not impact its performance.

Board feels flimsy for a heavy cake.

For extremely dense or heavy cakes, it is recommended to double up the cake boards by stacking two together or to use a thicker cake drum. Ensure the cake's internal structure is also reinforced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and stable construction for reliable cake support.
  • Attractive 'turned edge' finish enhances presentation.
  • Available in a range of sizes and quantities to suit various baking projects.
  • Easy to clean and wipe down.
  • Silver color provides a neutral and professional backdrop.

Cons

  • 2mm thickness may not be sufficient for very large or heavy multi-tiered cakes without additional support.
  • While durable, the foil finish can be scratched if sharp objects are dragged across it.
  • Not suitable for direct contact with food; a cake layer or liner must be used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These cake boards require no setup; they are ready to use straight out of the packaging. They are compatible with all types of cakes, from sponge to fruit cakes. To care for your LARRYROO cake boards, simply wipe them clean with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the foil finish. Ensure the boards are dried thoroughly before storing to prevent any moisture damage. Store them flat in a cool, dry place.
