Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the mould on a cake rack. Turn the cake over onto an ovenproof plate, remove from the mould and remove the aluminium foil. Caramelise the walnut sugar crust with a small gas burner until golden brown (or caramelise under the preheated grill for about 3 minutes). Arrange the apple pie on a tart plate and dust with icing sugar as desired. Whipped cream tastes good with it
