Benefits of technology

The present invention provides containers for storing and transporting Bundt-style cakes and similar items. These containers are attractive, easy to use, and can safely store, transport, and remove these items.

Problems solved by technology

Preparing food is a time consuming but very important task.
The effort that goes into preparing food can be immense.
While preparing food may be time consuming, without proper storage all that work may be wasted.
Poorly stored or poorly protected food may become detrimental to health and such can dramatically reduce the attractiveness and desirability of a food product.
While protecting all food is important, some foodstuffs such as cakes and pies are readily subject to physical damage which can dramatically reduce their value and desirability.
Large foodstuffs such as Bundt-style cakes are particularly difficult to properly store and transport.
The widely used and available food storage bags are simply unsuitable for a Bundt-style cake.
However, providing a protective container that attractively presents the contained Bundt-style cake is problematic.
Compounding the problem is that Bundt-style cakes can be easily damaged simply by placing them into or removing them from a box.

Abstract

A carrier for a Bundt-cake-style food product includes a lid assembly and a base assembly that includes a plate and a hub that extends upward from the plate. The lid assembly includes downward extending clip fasteners that are located around the lower perimeter of the lid assembly. The clips each have a protrusion that snap fits into a groove around the perimeter of the base assembly. The snap fit securely fastens the lid assembly to the base assembly. The lid assembly also includes a carrying handle, a hub receiver that receives the hub when the lid assembly is attached to the base assembly, and a plurality of stabilizing ribs.
