Cake Boards: selection and sample review
Review the surface and cut edge
Share the visible colour or covering reference and identify the food-contact face. Surface treatment, edge appearance and any printing need review against grease, moisture and intended use.
Check the intended lifting method
Test the sample with the intended cake weight and handling method, including transfer into the box. If more support is needed, compare a cake drum; no load capacity follows from the product photo.

From brief to sample and quotation
Share what you know
Start with the intended use, product dimensions or a reference photo, quantity and destination where known. For undecided material, structure or finish, write Not sure / Need recommendation and describe the result you need.
Agree the sample and review points
A structural sample checks fit and handling; artwork or finish proofs check presentation. Agree the required sample type, material, review criteria, sample fees and timing before arranging that stage.
Confirm the quotation scope
Confirm the selected specification, artwork status, quantity, delivery destination and packing form. MOQ, price and actual lead time remain subject to the quotation; flag any required contact-use documentation or testing for separate review.
Selection and quotation FAQs
How do I compare a cake board with a cake drum?
Compare the required support and presentation with the cake weight and box fit. If a thicker support is needed, review the related Cake Drums page; thickness is confirmed for the project.
How much border should remain around the cake?
Show the desired presentation and where staff need to hold the board. Review that border with the cake footprint and box interior instead of assuming a standard allowance.
Are the dimensions and MOQ fixed?
These pages describe packaging types for project review. Send the dimensions and quantity you need; final specifications and MOQ are confirmed in the quotation.
How is food-contact suitability confirmed?
Describe the food, contact conditions and destination market. Material choice and supporting documentation are reviewed for that use before an order is confirmed.
