unmoulds

Extracts from cast

Unmoulds is the British spelling of unmolds, meaning to remove something from a mould or form.

The word appears most often in cooking contexts, where jellies, cakes, or puddings are turned out of their containers: Chill until set, then unmould onto a serving plate.

The action requires the contents to hold their shape once released.
