​DIY Cake Boards Display Homemade Cakes, Saving $90 - December 2019

​Instead of paying $15 or more from my local cake shop for cake boards to display home-made cakes, I use artist's canvases bought from $2 Shops or The Reject Shop for $2 - $3 each. They make excellent cake boards, come in a variety of sizes in square or rectangular shapes and can be re-used over and over. Depending on the type of cake and how it is decorated I either cover the board with ordinary foil, wrapping paper or cut to size plastic party tablecloths (again bought from The Reject Shop for $2), sticky-taped neatly on the back of the board. With six birthdays a year, not to mention other special occasions, making my own cake boards saves my family at least $90 a year!
