  • Patent number: 8590707
    Abstract: A flat foldable tray having a set of fold lines inscribed therein along which the tray is bent to form a package in which to carry a variety of products (e.g., baked goods). The flat foldable tray includes a base portion, a pair of side walls and a pair of end walls, each of which walls being hingedly connected to the base portion, and a folding corner located between each pair of adjacent side and end walls. The pairs of side and end walls are bent upwardly relative to the base portion along with the folding corners at respective fold lines such that the folding corners are located at the exterior of the package and outside the walls thereof. The pairs of side and end walls are retained in locking engagement with one another so that the walls are retained in end-to-end alignment and the package is held in a closed configuration.

  • Patent number: 7857136
    Abstract: A flat foldable tray preferably manufactured from recycled paper content and having sets of fold lines formed therein along which the tray can be bent to create different geometric shapes for packaging a variety of baked goods, or the like. By way of a preferred embodiment, the foldable tray is a square having four sides of identical length. The sides of the tray and the sets of fold lines are aligned with one another to form the sides of one square, one octagon, and three rectangles, each of which having an identical center and lying inside the perimeter of the square tray. Adjacent fold lines which form the sides of each of the inside square, octagon and rectangles intersect one another at the four sides of the square tray. A pair of dividers may be coupled to one another and attached to the foldable tray at upturned corners thereof to create independent storage compartments in which to carry individual baked goods.
