It is not necessarily wholesale, but fondant source has GREAT prices for cake drums and SPS. I got a pack of five 12-inch round drums, 1/2 inch thick, for $10.49. My local cake store charges $4.39 for one.

I'm in Milwaukee so my choices are Cook's cake supply and they sell each at over $4 or Michael's and they sell the Wilton packs of 2 for $8 plus depending on size, so online ordering is going to be the way to go for me other than Home Depot and going with wood base

If you have a vendor license. Decopac. They are great to deal with.

I guess it depends on where you live because I tried fondant source and the shipping turned out to be more than the cost of the item and more than the cost I would pay locally, so that didn't work out for me.

My husband makes a lot of my boards for me. Maybe one day he'll start selling them.
