Dispensing baked good container assembly and method
A dispensing baked good container assembly includes a container having a pastry bag extend between an upper portion and a lower portion. The pastry bag is flexible. The pastry bag has an internal cavity configured to hold baked good ingredients. The lower portion has a lower dispensing opening at a dispensing tip at a bottom of the pastry bag through which the baked good ingredients are dispensed. The dispensing baked good container assembly includes a support ring coupled to the upper portion of the pastry bag. The support ring is rigid or semi-rigid to support the upper end of the pastry bag and form a funnel providing access to the internal cavity.

Pass-through system for an automated wrapping machine
In an automatic horizontal wrapping machine for applying a wrapper to consecutive bread loaves moved along a feed path through the machine, changeover to operation allowing the loaves to pass through the machine without being wrapped is accomplished by: disabling a feed for wrapping material; shifting and maintaining a wrapping material forming box out of the feed path; installing a slide deck defining the bottom of the feed path; providing a transfer component to move loaves along the feed path by sliding on the deck separate and apart from and independent of the transfer mechanism used by the machine when wrapping; and disabling a cutter-sealing component sufficiently so as not to interfere with passage of bread loaves past the cutter-sealer; to allow the bread loaves to pass through the machine along the feed path without being wrapped.
Refrigerated, Chemically Leavened Doughs in Package, with Carbon Dioxide Atmosphere
Described are methods and compositions relating to dough compositions leavened by chemical leavening systems that include acidic chemical leavening agent and encapsulated basic chemical leavening agent, wherein the dough composition can be refrigerated in a low pressure package that contains a carbon dioxide atmosphere.

Bagging System for Packaging a Foodstuff
A system includes a conveyor that transports a carriage carrying a foodstuff along a path. A bag dispenser contains multiple bags and moves a first bag into the path. A paddle includes a hinge at a trailing edge of the paddle. The paddle includes an actuator that moves a leading edge of the paddle relative to the trailing edge between retracted and extended positions. The leading edge of the paddle moves into a mouth of the first bag as the leading edge is moved from the retracted to the extended position. While the paddle is in the extended position, movement of the carriage and the foodstuff underneath the paddle rotates the leading edge of the paddle about the hinge to open the mouth of the first bag such that continued movement of the carriage and the foodstuff moves the foodstuff through the mouth and into the first bag.
PIZZA BOX TOY AND GAME DELIVERY DEVICES
A delivery pizza may include a pizza box and pizza disposed therein. A toy container may be disposed in a gap of the pizza region between the pizza and adjacent sidewalls of the pizza box. In another embodiment, a toy partition member may be used to separate the toy from the pizza. A toy container may be configured to be supported by an in-store pizza on a pizza tray. A board game delivery device may alternatively be included in the pizza box to include a board game delivery device to enable a board game and accessory pieces therefor to be delivered to a consumer of the pizza. The board game may be positioned beneath the pizza, and game accessories may be disposed in storage regions defined by the board game delivery device.

Food delivery system for packaging of food and method of delivering food to be packaged
A flipping station including a moving surface upon which an upside-down food item is placed and a ramp spaced from the moving surface so that a gap is defined between the moving surface and the ramp. The moving surface is moving at a sufficient speed so that the upside-down food item has sufficient momentum to travel past the gap and land on the ramp. A contact surface that is positioned past the gap at a contact position and is positioned above the ramp so that the upside-down food item is deflected backwards by the contact surface into the gap and the upside-down food item rotates 180 so as to land right-side up on a landing surface located below the ramp.
