Its been awhile since I did a 9x13 but I think I always used an 11x15 board and box. 
Well I made it on a 9x13 board and then put in on the 11x15 covered with contact paper and then applied border!! |

Here is where I get 11x15 boards: http://www.countrykitchensa.co.....ductId=886
I usually go up to the next box size (the half sheet size); I've never found 11x15 boxes, but I also haven't tried very hard  . I forgot Wilton sells 14x20 boards for half sheets, but they're the scalloped edged ones that don't wrap well. 14x20 still isn't big enough for my liking though, but it gives an inch all the way around a half sheet (like the 11x15 does for a quarter sheet). |

A while back, I ordered a case of 1/4 sheet boards (100), but they didn't specify that they are actually a bit smaller than 10x14! That makes if even worse when doing a 9x13 cake. |

I cut my board to 11x15 and use the 19x14 box...no problem with messing up the borders...plenty of room left. |

It gives you NO ROOM to do a border without messing it up in the box!!!
birthday that was 9x13, and it barely fit the board. I am going to have to remember to trim an inch off two of the sides in the future so it fits the board better.
