Cut the top off nice and level can turn it upside down then, often do this to make a fruit cake level to ice with fondant icing. For future reference if your cake is getting a bit brown on top pop a piece of tin foil on top of it to stop it burning, or turn oven down a little.

sittinga folded newspaper on the top is another way of stopping it from scorching..
says she who almost had the same problem. I am waiting for a new stove so I might just leave the making of any more until I get one. This one is too temperamental.
