Your cake is wonderful. Now how do you get it out of the pan and on to a serving plate without breaking it? First, let the cake cool after removing it from the oven—and then follow these simple steps.
1. Take a knife and insert it between the cake and springform pan. Gently run it around to separate the cake from the sides of the pan.
2. Open the latch.
3. Extend the latch so that the springform pan sides separate from the cake. If any part of the cake sticks, use a knife or your fingers to work it free.
4. Lift the cake free.
5. Using both of your hands, gently lift the cake upward.
6. Support the cake with one hand and turn it on its side with the other hand.
7. Remove the pan bottom.
8. Lift the parchment paper away from the cake.
9. Using one hand for support, gently place the cake on a serving platter.
