Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What sizes are available for the CAKESAFE Acrylic Disks? A: The CAKESAFE Acrylic Disks come in a size of 6.25 inches, specifically designed in a heart shape.
- Q: How do I choose the right size Acrylic Disk for my cake? A: To choose the best size Acrylic Disk, measure your finished cakes and the bottoms of your cake pans. Generally, use .5 inch sizing for cakes that shrink less than 1/8 inch, .25 inch for cakes that shrink more than 1/8 inch or will be covered with fondant, and .00 inch for cakes that shrink more than 1/4 inch.
- Q: Can I use the Acrylic Disks for cakes without fondant? A: Yes, you can use the Acrylic Disks for cakes not covered in fondant. Just make sure to choose the appropriate size based on how much your cake shrinks.
- Q: How do the center holes in the Acrylic Disks work? A: The 3/8 inch center hole in the Acrylic Disks helps bakers center their cake tiers using a temporary dowel to prevent shifting while icing.
- Q: What should I do if my cakes are not chilled before icing? A: If your cakes are not chilled before icing with the disks, it is recommended to use a temporary dowel through the disks and cake to stabilize the layers.
- Q: How should I clean and care for the Acrylic Disks? A: Handle the Acrylic Disks with care and wash them by hand with mild soap. Make sure to remove the protective plastic layer before use and rinse them thoroughly.
- Q: What are the thickness specifications of the CAKESAFE Acrylic Disks? A: The Acrylic Disks are made of sturdy ¼ inch clear acrylic, which is thicker than many competing brands that use only 1/8 inch material.
