I remember a friends mum dropping the tin onto the ground to loosen it. Not sure if it will work but may be worth a try

I'd run a wet knife around the edges of the cake and then flip it onto a cooling rack and bang the bottom a few times with a wooden spoon. Chances are you'll need to do some cover work with the icing when it comes out though.
Also I read this topic as:
"Help I'm stuck in a cake tin"

LOL I like Mrs H's idea.
Otherwise no help, same thing happened to me the other day and I ended up sticking it back together with icing lol. Still tasted good!

I'd used a non-stick tin, and still greased it and the damn thing was still stuck in there. So I put it over heat, then turned it upside and was banging on the bottom, and it still wasn't coming out. But half of it broke off, so I used a fish slice to get the rest out. Was a little broken but iced it all back together.
Thanks for your replies!!

That's what freaks me out about baking a cake, I always get cake-paranoia that it isn't going to come out of the tin. My last one was a disaster!

i use baking paper in my tins now so
1) i dont have to clean them
2) they lift right out 
Sometimes they get funny shaped sides if i dont get the paper just right but that can be iced over as well

Came back to see if you got it out LMAO
I alway use at least baking paper on the bottom of the cake. You can always get a knife down the sides but never under it.

I do have a tin with expandable sides, which I always use, but couldn't find it the other night when i was baking! Don't know where I put it after I used it last.
Yeah you can always get the knife around the sides, but not under it.
I did have baking paper too, but in the past when I've used it for cakes, the cake seems to like sticking to that too. I thought the non-stick cake tin, and greasing it would've been enough!
