Abstract: Convertible trays are disclosed with features that facilitate preparation, transportation, and presentation of food items. An example convertible tray includes a substrate defining apertures, where each aperture is for holding a food item. The convertible tray also includes a first separation feature (e.g., at least one perforation) defined by the folded substrate on a first side of the convertible tray adjacent to at least one aperture of the apertures. The convertible tray further includes flaps that are foldable to support the first side of the convertible tray above a support surface. The folded substrate can be divided at the at least one perforation, to remove an individual tray that includes the at least one aperture adjacent to the perforation. The individual tray can be inserted into a serving container while holding the food item.
