Choosing the Right Cake Board
For lighter cakes and everyday service, cake cards provide reliable support at a lower cost. For heavier cakes, tall buttercream finishes, fondant work, or multi-tier builds, cake drums give the rigidity you need for safer handling and a more premium look.
To keep boards and prep areas cleaner during production, many bakeries use baking parchment and oven-safe baking paper for lining trays, separating layers and protecting work surfaces.

Do you offer next working day delivery?
Yes—orders placed before the daily 15:00 cut-off qualify for next working day UK delivery (weekends and bank holidays excluded).
What’s the difference between a cake card and a drum?
Cake cards are thinner boards for light to mid-weight cakes, while cake drums are thicker, rigid boards designed for heavy, iced or tiered cakes.
Round or square—how do I choose?
Match the shape of your cake and box. Round boards suit round cakes, while square boards maximise space and are ideal for square cakes or sheet cakes.
What size board do I need?
Choose a board that fits inside your cake box and gives the presentation margin you want around the cake. Check each product’s dimensions and your box’s internal size before ordering.
Are these boards food-safe and grease-resistant?
Yes—these boards are made for food contact and designed to be grease-resistant for typical bakery use.
Are cake cards and drums recyclable?
Many board components are recyclable depending on the finish and local recycling facilities. Please follow your local recycling guidance.
