Abstract: A food assembly includes a first layer, which may be formed of cake, and a second layer, which may be formed of icing. The first layer may include at least four food elements. The food elements may be shaped so that tops of the food elements are contiguous and define a top surface of the first layer. The second layer adjoins the top surface. Upon pulling a selected one of the food elements away from the remainder of the first layer, a portion of the second layer is separated from the remainder of the second layer. The food assembly may be combined with a container having a base and at least four pockets, and each of the food elements of the food assembly may be nested in a respective one of the pockets.
