USAGE TIPS
Choose a drum 5 to 10 cm wider than the cake to leave room for handling and decorating.
For a tiered cake, each intermediate drum should be at least 5 cm wider than the tier above it.
Secure the base with a few dabs of royal icing to prevent it from sliding during transport.
Cover the visible edge with a satin ribbon attached with food-safe double-sided tape, or with a strip of fondant.
Your questions, our advice
How do I choose the right diameter for a tiered wedding cake?
Each drum should be at least 5 cm wider than the tier it supports: for tiers measuring 15, 25, and 35 cm, use drums measuring 20, 30, and 40 cm.
What's the difference compared with a square or rectangular drum?
The same 12 mm thickness and white finish: the shape depends solely on the cake—round for a classic layer cake, square or rectangular for a number cake or an angular cake.
Can the white drum support a very heavy cake?
Yes, the 12 mm high-density multi-layer board is designed to support tiered cakes without bending, unlike a thin 3 mm cake board.
