FAQs
What does '13mm thick' mean for the cake drum?
The 13mm thickness refers to the height of the drum's edge. This provides a substantial, rigid base for supporting heavier cakes and protecting them during transport.
Can I put a warm cake directly into the box?
No, always ensure your cake is completely cooled before placing it on the drum and inside the box. Placing a warm cake can cause condensation, damage the frosting, and potentially affect the structural integrity of the box and drum.
How do I choose the right size drum and box?
Select a drum and box that are at least 1-2 inches larger in diameter than your cake. This provides space for placing the cake and ensures the box lid can close without touching the cake.
Is the silver foil finish food-safe?
The foil finish is applied to the exterior of the drum and is not in direct contact with the cake when properly used. The base is covered with white paper, which is typically food-safe. Always ensure the cake is placed on parchment paper or a similar barrier if directly touching the drum is a concern.
What is the difference between this and a standard cake board?
Standard cake boards are typically thinner (3-5mm) and less rigid. The LARRYROO drum is significantly thicker (13mm) and constructed with stronger materials, making it ideal for supporting heavier cakes and providing superior protection.
Can I write or draw on the box?
Yes, the white surface of the box is suitable for writing or drawing on with appropriate markers, or for affixing stickers. This is a great way to personalize the packaging for an event.
What is the MPN for this specific pink product?
The MPN for this product is LR-CBDR. Please note that MPNs can be shared across different color variants.
Troubleshooting
Cake feels unstable on the drum
Ensure the cake is centered on the drum and that the drum is placed on a flat, stable surface. For very heavy or tiered cakes, consider adding internal dowel supports within the cake structure itself.
Box lid does not fit securely
Check that the cake is not too tall for the box height. Ensure the cake drum is not placed off-center, which can affect lid placement. If the box itself is damaged, it may need replacement.
Foil surface is scratched or torn
Minor scratches can often be covered with a decorative sticker or ribbon. Significant tears may compromise the protective layer and suggest it's time to consider using a new drum for crucial transports.
