Notes
To remove cheesecake from the cake pan, draw the parchment paper sizes slightly larger than the cake pan. This way you will be able to remove the base easier by gently sliding a cake server underneath and gently lift up the cheesecake - not high up - (but must do it quickly) onto a serving plate.
OR use a easier method but must do it gently
Scrape the sides of the cheesecake with a hot knife and remove the pan ring. Cover the cheesecake with cling wrap and a cake board on top then upside down the cake and gently remove the cake pan base and turn it back with the help of another cake board.
