I just baked a cake (yellow cake mix) in a bundt cake pan and i sprayed it with crisco before i poured it in there, but it is finished in the oven and it won't come out. I'm afraid that it is going to fall apart. Any suggestions?

If it has cooled put it back in the oven to heat up. Then bring it back out, leave it on the counter for just a couple of minutes. Put a cooling rack or plate on top of the pan and invert it. Shake it back and forth. If you properly seasoned the pan it should drop right out. Should you be unfortunate enough to have it break up and don't have time to bake another you can use a heavy glaze to conceal the errors.
BTW... proper pan seasoning requires both grease and then a dusting of flour

Removing Cake From Bundt Pan
2016-11-16 17:14:23 · answer #2 · answered by celine 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
I accidentally left my bundt cake in the pan overnight and it stuck like glue. I used a thin knife and it was not budging. I searched for answers and could not find anything that worked but I finally got it out. What I did is this. I got a mixing bowl bigger than my bundt pan and filled it halfway with hot water from the tap. Then I put the bowl in the microwave and heated it until steaming but not boiling. Then I immersed the cake in the bowl making sure no water spilled into the cake. I left it for five minutes, took it out and dried the bottom with paper towls. I turned it over and the cake came right out! Happy Baking!

Make sure the cake is cool, if hot it can fall apart easily. Then slowly run a knife along the edges of the pan (a little harder to do with a bundt but I do it) and tap on the edges a little bit before turning it over. For bundt pans, I don't just oil the pans... I usually oil the pan and then add flour to the pan.

Well let the cake cool completely in the pan. place in a hot oven for 5 min. and try to turn it out immediately. That should heat the pan up to expand slightly and release the stuck cake. Next time, "dust" the greased pan with bread crumbs and/or flour before pouring in the batter. If the cake breaks, make a trifle out of it , use pudding/ pie filling, & whipped cream layered with pieces of cake. No one need know what happened.

Maybe it isn't completed cooked yet. You can try putting a skewer/chopstick/toothpick through the middle and see if it is still undercooked. If it is ready (assuming that you put enough Crisco spray), then you can put a knife underneath the cake and carry it out onto a serving plate or whatever you want to do with it.

I hate when that happens! Put it upside on a cooling rack and hope for the best. Good Luck and Merry Christmas!

if you have the time, let it cool upside down on the neck of a bottle like a wine bottle. Then if you don't think it will come out when you try, try freezing it mostly solid or at least 4 hours and try again. (but you have to then wait for it to defrost on the plate to frost it)
goodluck

Get a bowl full of ice & leave it in there for a few minutes.

I hate it when that happens.....Give it a chance to cool, it may come away from the sides easier then.
