For many new bakers, they don't know how to choose the size of the cake drum, if you want to make a cake to sell, what size is the most suitable, if you want to make an 8 inch cake, you should be at least choose a 10 inch cake drum or cake board , so you leave some room to draw, which will make your cake look more perfect.
From the size :
For example, you can choose a 9-inch cake board to make an 8-inch cake. The weight of the cake board is also very important. Otherwise, the cake board will not be able to bear the weight of the cake. If you choose an inappropriate size and thickness, it will be very difficult. Bend, or the cake board will break. So, when you choose to use the cake board, not only the quality and safety of the cake board, but also the thickness and size, the color can also be customized by the factory, if you want the theme color of your cake shop, then you can send Sample or tell us about Pantone color
From the material :
If your cakes are wedding cake , very high , may be you can choose solid cake drum (cardboard + corrugated paper material ) , they can hold 5-8kg .so cake drum will be heavier .
If your cakes only have one layer , corrugated paper material is fine . they can hold the cake very well . you can match ribbons and accessories in the remaining space . In addition to corrugated material , we also make wood materials, foam material and Acrylic material .
How can we choose the right material? If you want to find the same material, the best way is to remove the paper on the surface, and then look at the structure inside, so that our sales will recommend you a cake board that is more suitable for you, if there is no material that can be displayed, just According to the above method, explain the weight of your cake and how much thickness you need
From the thickness :
Thickness and ingredients go hand in hand, and if your cake is heavy enough, then you need to choose a slightly thicker thickness, for example ,if you need 10inch cake drum , suitable thickness is 12mm thick, of course , we can do 15mm thick, but the thick not common .
The thick we have made before : 12mm, 15mm,18mm .some customer called :1/2inch thick ,1/4inch thick，1/6inch thick , if you want other thick , so you can send to us , 6mm, 8mm , 15mm , 18mm thick can do wrapped edge cake drum . for smooth edge , we can do 12mm, 10mm thick . we do it by 2 layer corrugated paper , if 15mm thick , 3 layer corrugated paper material .
From the workmanship :
As a original factory, they will give you suggestions and solutions, you only need to tell us your ideas and designs, we also have different sizes and thicknesses, some of which are suitable for one-time use, and some can be used repeatedly. If you buy double-sided cake drums, you can make cakes on Monday, and cupcakes on Tuesday, so that you can recycle many times, the surface of the cake drum is oil and water repellent, and we can do the pleated edges, It can also be a smooth edge, some customers like to cover the ribbon on the edge, then it can perfectly display the cake and the bottom, some will wholesale this cake drum, then the cake drum will be sold to consumers with ribbons and cake boxes .
From the edge：
You can use smooth edge or wrapped. If you like the wrapped edge, you can have more choices in thickness, such as 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 18mm, 24mm, if you want to do smooth edge, then the size is the best choice is 12mm.
Smooth edge , the edge is smooth , no any wrinkle . then don’t need ribbon to cover . the surface paper is thicker than wrapped edge , The inner structure is a siding support to ensure that this edge will not collapse, we use the paper is 285gsm foil paper and 275 white paper .
Wrapped edge , the edge is wrapped edge , then you don’t worry about the water enter into the inside . the back is white paper , the white paper is not waterproof .
Because we need to bend the paper , so we will choose soft paper , so the weight of foil paper is 182gsm, the white paper is 125gsm . it is suitable and fit the cake well . the soft foil aluminum not only for cake drum make , some customer order it to stick on the wood board , then they can sell to retailers .the edge there a wrinkle ,then you can cover the different color ribbon to match with your cakes . if you shop topic color is pink , then you can cover pink ribbon.
From the shipment :
How to How to choose the size, I have to say, transportation is also a problem that needs to be considered. If your size is relatively large, then you need to consider whether you can guarantee the shipping budget. Cake drums are generally charged according to the volume weight, so the actual weight should be Less than the volume weight, so the point is, what is the box gauge (length, width and height) you need to know the size you need?
Some customer will said : your goods should be including freight fee , really sorry . the shipping cost we quote you the same as the shipping company quote us . we provide goods value ,if you have no agent , we can help you .
