What you need for an 8cm cake base:
- a piece of cardboard (preferably heavier quality),
- a glass or similar as your 8cm template,
- a roll of aluminum foil and
- some cellotape.
Using your circular template, mark out as many circles on the cardboard as you need (fig. 1). Then take a sharp pair of scissors and cut them out carefully (fig. 2).
Now take your roll of aluminum foil and cut out a square about 15 x 15cm. Place your cardboard circle in the center (fig. 3). Then begin folding the foil evenly over the cardboard (fig. 4).
Once complete, press out any lumps and bumps, working towards the center of the circle. When you're happy with it, apply a piece of cellotape just to help keep everything secure (fig. 5).
Finally flip it over and there you have it - a nice, smooth and shiny silver board (fig. 6) as we used in the table base for our balloon bouquet 'Simple & Elegant'.
