Biow's note:

• Lee Lee said, "to unmould any cake that is in the freezer (those really frozen hard type) here is what you can do: Tear away the aluminum foil, place cake on cake board, use a hairdryer to blow on the side of the mould turning the mould round. Do that for a few mins and try lifting the cake ring up, the cake should slide nicely onto the cake board."
