If it is stored in the fridge, take it out at least an hour before it is required. Take a blunt edge knife, or a knife spatula, and scoope out a huge lump of frosting dolloping it in the middle, do this again until you have a big amount of icing in the middle. Then using the flat edge of the metal spatula, pull the icing from the middle, gentle scraing it to the outside. Repeat this process until the cake is covered in a thick neat layer!

How do you get the gloss off a ceramic figure?

The gloss is fired on glaze. In short, it's a very thin coating of glass. You might try using a very fine emery cloth to dull the glaze, but the results won't be what you wish. For a temporary fix, try simply painting over the glaze with acrylic wash. It will dull the finish. After all, you might change your mind later.
