A blank for forming a box for serving pizza includes panels defined and separated by manufactured lines that, when folded, define a box having a first footprint for enclosing within the box an entire pizza and that, when folded differently with panels having been removed, define a second box having a second footprint for enclosing leftovers of the entire pizza, the second footprint being smaller than the first footprint. The second footprint preferably is approximately one half of the area of the first footprint for accommodating no more than half of the entire pizza.

A unique pizza box apparatus and methods of forming and using said pizza box are disclosed. The pizza box is formed with an additional plate pocket for receiving plates therein. The pocket is connected to an inside surface of the pizza box lid and expands a distance less than that of the depth of the pizza box. On the pizza box lid is a cut or perforated plate pocket lid with a living hinge on one end and a lid tab on a substantially opposite end for grabbing and rotatably opening the plate pocket lid with respect to the pizza box lid. A pizza bumper may further be included within the box to ensure separation between a base of the plate pocket and a pizza once the pizza is placed within the box. Napkins and/or further utensils may also be placed within the plate pocket if so desired.

The present invention belongs to the field of food processing and human nutrition. It particularly relates to a packed dough product comprising ready-to-use, fresh dough pieces; a dough assembly comprising said packed dough product; a method for preparing them and a method for storing them. The packed dough product has a prolonged lifetime, without compromising the organoleptic properties of the dough pieces. The packed dough product is useful for example for preparing home-delivered dough-based foodstuff, particularly pizzas.

The self-folding pizza packaging box with the compartments and carry handle belongs to the area of transport packaging. The box (1) is made of the folded blank (A), formed by folding and gluing into a flat form of the box (1), and is formed from the upright surfaces in a vertical position. The box (1) is made in the form of a prism with bases (2, 3), parallel lateral panels (4, 4′′), while its other two parallel sides are rectangular flaps (5). The box (1) is formed by folding upwards the lateral panels (4, 4′) of the rectangular shape along the folding lines (2.1, 2.2, 3.1, 3.2), by straightening the flaps (9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4) which are continued to the lateral panels (4, 4′) and by folding upwards the rectangular parts of the flaps (5) along the folding lines (2.3) so that it is brought to a vertical position to the bases (2, 3) of the rhomboid shape. By folding upwards the lateral panels (4, 4′) the rhomboid compartments (6, 7) are also straightened, they are pulled in towards the inside of the box (1) in relation to the outer edges of the filling opening. On the flap (5) whose longer side is the folding line (5.1), a cutting line (5.2) is made in which the flap (8) is inserted, made in the middle of the other two parallel sides of the base (3) along the folding line (8.3), thus sealing the box (1) is provided. After putting six slices of pizza, the whole pizza, into the box and closing it, the carry handle (10) is inserted into the box (1) so that the parts (10.3) are inserted between the rectangular parts of the flap (5) and the flaps (9.2, 9.4), the parts (10.2).) rest on the lateral panels (4, 4′), and the part (10.1) is placed diagonally on the surface of the base (3). The application (contain the embodiment of the box (1) which is the folded blank (A1).
