Cake Paper Tray
A cake paper tray, also known as a cake board or cake circle, is a disposable or reusable support used for presenting and transporting cakes and other baked goods. It provides a stable base and facilitates easy handling.
Material
Cake paper trays are commonly constructed from the following materials:

- Plastic: Reusable options, often made from polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Offer greater durability and resistance to moisture.
- Metal: Typically aluminum or stainless steel, providing a sturdy and elegant base, often used for professional baking and display.
