Peel the kiwi fruit, cut it into thin slices & fan out the slices over the entire torte. Glaze if desired by pouring a thin layer of still warm glaze over the cool cake. Refrigerate the cake again for 10 minutes before cutting it. To serve, remove the cake from the pan by lifting out on the plastic wrap. GLAZE: In a small pot, dissolve the agar in the water. Add brown rice syrup & mint extract. Bring to a simmer & remove from heat. Allow to cool slightly.
