unmolds

Removes from form

Unmolds means to remove something from a mold—the container that gave it shape.

The term appears most often in cooking, where cooks unmold gelatin desserts, cakes, or custards onto serving plates: Chill for two hours, then unmold onto a platter.

The action requires care to preserve the molded shape.
