To remove the cake, gently pull out from the silicon mould or using hot towel if using cake pan. To glaze a cake, place the cake on a cooking rack / 6" (smaller) round cake pan over a sheet tray. With quick movements, remove all the film by using hands/scraper. This will smooth the corners and the surface, and removes the outer layer of ice, allowing the glaze better bond with the product. This trick - one of the possible solutions to problems flowing from the sides glaze. Pour the glaze onto the center of the frozen cake (make sure whole cake is covered), then spoons the colorings glaze on the surface quickly, and used elbowed spatula to smear it. Walk away the excess of glaze using spatula. Being careful not to touch the glaze layer.
