i can't remember ever using those exact ones--but wow that's weird to me---i've heard of wooden dowels imparting a musty flavor right around where they are placed 'cause i mean figure where they've been right?but a cardboard taste? someone smart will chime in soon i'm sure--
but yes for an upscale look you want to decorate your boards--florist foil is often used--i place my cake on another plain cardboard circle when i use florist foil because ff is not food safe--then i place all that on the larger foil covered board--
wilton makes nice food safe foils

ASmear a thin coat of bc on the cake board before you put the cake on it.
yes good idea, mc--
and i thought of something--you're not putting the cake on there while it's still warm are yah? that might be doing that--
The Wilton cake foil is nice. Never had a problem. It is also very forgiving when decorating. Little smears that you get while smoothing the buttercream wipe away easily. It also looks nice.
oh the icing--not the cake---
why do you think it was the cake board? the wax should not have let anything like that come through--i mean obviously something icked it up----did it do it twice for you or anything like that?
that's very odd
