Here Are 5 Easy Tips To Remove The Cake From The Pan
1. Let It Cool
The first step in getting your cake out of the pan is to let it cool completely and come to room temperature. If you try to remove a cake from a pan that is still warm, the cake will either break or get stuck.
2. Use Knife
Another one of the tricks after cooling is to loosen the cake from the side edges. For this, slide the knife carefully between the cake and the pan's edge, moving slowly around the edge. Again, keep the knife against the pan to avoid cutting into the cake.

3. Flip The Cake
Place a large plate on top of the cake pan. Flip the pan upside down with the plate on the bottom, holding the plate firmly in place. The cake will slowly release and come out in one piece if you tap and gently shake the pan.
4. Microwave
Fill a mug halfway with boiling water. Place the cake pan on top of the mug in the microwave to heat it up. Allow it to sit in the microwave for a few minutes without turning it on. The cake should release from the pan due to the steam.
