Round Sole - Gold - 25 cm

The golden Azucren cake tray stands out with 6 major advantages that make it the reference for professional pastry chefs and cake designers:

• Shiny gold finish: a golden mirror effect that enhances the presentation of white, chocolate, or colored cakes. Ideal for professional photography
• 3 mm high-density cardboard: calibrated thickness to support tiered cakes without bending, even with heavy bases (frozen entremets, dense layer cakes)
• Aluminum coating: hygienic barrier that prevents moisture and grease from the cake from reaching the cardboard
• Fluted edge: elegant visual signature that immediately distinguishes a premium tray from a standard base
• Diameter 25 cm: universal size suitable for cakes 18 to 22 cm in diameter, with aesthetic margin for side decorations
• Reusable: with proper care, the tray can be used multiple times in a professional setting

Patissland offers several ranges of cake bases, each with its own professional specialty:

• Golden Azucren Tray 25 cm (this sheet): reinforced 3 mm cardboard, shiny gold aluminum finish, fluted edge. Ideal for premium presentation of individual round cakes
• Cake Drums: thicker supports (12 mm) for tiered wedding cakes and heavy assembled pieces. Essential for multi-level structures
• Classic cake supports: full range in all sizes and finishes (silver, gold, white, wood)
• 27 cm turntable: rotating support to facilitate icing and precise decoration in the workshop

The Azucren 25 cm golden board is the ideal choice for the final presentation of the cake, where cake drums are more for the internal structure of tiered wedding cakes.

The Azucren 25 cm golden board excels in uses where premium presentation is essential:

• Individual tier wedding cakes: to present each separate tier during cutting or for chic single-tier wedding cakes
• Prestige entremets: fine pastry creations (mousses, bavarois, frozen) where the golden finish highlights the delicacy of the cake
• Layer cakes: to showcase layer cakes 18-22 cm in diameter at events or photo shoots
• Number Cakes and Letter Cakes: stable and elegant support for personalized event creations
• High-end birthdays: for premium orders where the client expects a neat presentation down to the base
• Wedding buffets: to dress boards for petit fours and individual desserts
• Display cases and product photography: the shiny golden finish creates an ideal contrast for photographing creations in the studio

Follow this professional method for a flawless presentation:

• Step 1: preparing the board - take the board out of its packaging and gently wipe the golden surface with a soft cloth to remove any handling marks
• Step 2: protection before placing - place a light layer of parchment paper or transparent gold paper if you plan to cut directly on the board
• Step 3: centering the cake - precisely center your cake (18-22 cm in diameter) in the middle of the board to keep the golden decorative margin visible all around
• Step 4: fixing - apply a thin layer of ganache or buttercream to the back of the cake to secure it to the board and prevent any slipping during transport
• Step 5: decorative finishing - dress the cake base with a satin ribbon (2-3 cm wide) that extends the premium effect of the golden board
• Step 6: transport - use a cake box of suitable dimensions (at least 28 cm for this 25 cm board) with internal padding to avoid shocks

Golden presentation rule: always leave a minimum margin of 2 cm between the cake edge and the board edge to maintain the golden visual effect. For cakes 24 cm and larger, choose a 30 or 35 cm board from the cake stands collection.

The 7 signature tips from professional cake designers to fully utilize the golden board:

• Color contrast: white cakes (covered in Bright White FunCakes fondant) stand out beautifully on gold, creating an elegant contrast
• Consistent side decoration: pair a gold or ivory satin ribbon at the base to extend the golden signature of the board
• Product photography: photograph the cake slightly from above (45°) to capture both the top decoration and the golden margin of the board
• Lighting: the golden finish reacts to light. Prefer diffuse light (softbox or indirect natural light) to avoid harsh reflections
• Clean handling: wear cotton gloves or use a clean cloth to handle the board and avoid fingerprints on the gold
• Storage before use: keep the boards flat in their original packaging to preserve flatness and the golden finish
• Workshop consistency: for batch orders (multi-table weddings), order all your boards in the same batch to ensure a uniform golden shade

To create a prestigious pastry presentation, here are the complementary Patissland accessories:

• Cake drums: for tiered wedding cakes, to be paired with the Azucren board for the final presentation tier
• Cake boxes: choose a minimum size of 28 cm to transport the 25 cm tray without risk of damage
• Decorative letters and numbers: to personalize Number Cakes and Letter Cakes placed on the tray
• Sugar pastes: for covering and decorating the cake that will be placed on the tray
• Embossers: to engrave raised patterns on the covering and create visual coherence with the tray's elegance
• 27 cm turntable: essential in the workshop for glazing and decorating before transferring to the Azucren presentation tray

The Azucren tray complies with EU standards for food contact. Here are the best practices for use and care:

• Before use: wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dust
• Direct food contact: possible but we recommend adding parchment or transparent golden paper to preserve the finish during cutting
• No washing with water: the cardboard with aluminum coating does not tolerate immersion. For light stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth
• Storage: store flat, away from moisture and direct light to preserve the golden hue
• Professional reuse: if the tray has held a cake with direct contact (without intermediate paper), it is best to consider it single-use to comply with HACCP standards
• Reusable tray: if a protective paper has been used between the cake and the tray, the latter can be used multiple times with a simple wipe

Azucren is a Spanish brand specializing in presentation supports and accessories for professional pastry. Recognized throughout Europe for the quality of its metallic finishes, the brand equips pastry shops, event caterers, and demanding cake designers.

• A strict dimensional tolerance that guarantees perfect circularity of the tray

Patissland has selected Azucren for its recognized reliability among wedding cake professionals and prestigious entremets.

Can the 25 cm Azucren tray hold a multi-tier wedding cake?
For a multi-tier wedding cake, we recommend 12 mm thick cake drums which better support heavy loads. The 25 cm Azucren tray is ideal for presenting each tier separately after cutting or for a single-tier wedding cake of 18-22 cm.

Does the tray support direct contact with the cake?
Yes, the Azucren tray complies with European food contact standards. However, we recommend adding parchment or transparent gold paper to facilitate cutting and preserve the finish for possible reuse.

Can the cake be cut directly on the tray?
Yes, but it may mark the gold finish depending on knife pressure. To preserve the tray and allow reuse, add a transparent gold paper or a parchment paper disc between the cake and the tray.

What cake diameter fits this 25 cm tray?
The ideal cake diameter is between 18 and 22 cm. This leaves a visible gold margin of 1.5 to 3.5 cm all around the cake to highlight the Azucren finish.

Is the tray refrigerator safe?
Yes, the tray withstands positive refrigerator temperatures (0 to 8°C). Avoid prolonged freezer exposure which could damage the cardboard in the long term.

How to avoid fingerprints on the gold finish?
Handle the tray with cotton gloves or by holding only the fluted edge. If marks appear, gently wipe with a dry soft microfiber cloth.

Are there other sizes in the Azucren range at Patissland?
Yes, browse the cake stands collection to discover other available diameters and shapes (square, oval, rectangular) in gold and silver finishes.
