Abstract: A system for presenting and preparing foodstuffs that include a plurality of individual foodstuff blocks provided formed into basic shapes comprises a heating device including a heatable cooking receptacle for one or more foodstuff blocks with a heatable grill surface and at least one heating mandrel projecting from the grill surface; wherein the heating mandrel is insertable into a passage opening provided in each respective foodstuff block and is adapted to the contour of the passage opening so as to avoid an air gap between the wall of the passage opening and the heating mandrel.

Abstract: A sandal with a shoe bottom with raised sole rims on either side of the shoe bottom, a foot support bed incorporated in the shoe bottom, an upper strapping material, and a cover sole connected to the shoe bottom and having raised edge regions aligned with and extending past the raised sole rims on either side of the shoe bottom. The raised edge regions each form a lateral fastening portion for attachment to the upper strapping material.

Abstract: A clasp for fastening together opposing distal portions of upper and lower segments of flexible material, such as the straps of a shoe or sandal. The clasp has an upper part pivotally connected to a lower part by a hinge structure comprised of portions of proximate sidewalls of the parts, and a clip structure comprising an outwardly facing recess in a distal sidewall of one of the parts and a resilient inwardly arched section of a distal sidewall of the other part arranged to snap into and engage the recess when positioned opposite thereto. This snap action secures the upper part to the lower part in a closed position of the clasp. The lower part includes a holding pin mounted on a bottom wall of the lower part for insertion through corresponding holes in the flexible segments to prevent relative movement between these segments when the clasp is closed.
