A two piece mold assembly is comprised of flexible material, suitable for baking wherein the two pieces are joined together in a vertical orientation or a stacked orientation and held together by an interlocking seal structure. Once joined together, the mold assembly defines an interior cavity defining a shape for a baked comestible product. A comestible substance is injected into the interior cavity through an aperture in the top of the mold assembly that is either defined by one or more of the two pieces. The interlocking seal prevents egression of injected liquid from extruding outside the mold assembly. After baking, the pieces of the mold can be peeled away from the comestible product at the interlocking seal structure.

A baking container having one or more rupture lines for ease of removal and separation from a baked foodstuff is described herein. The baking container has a sidewall and a planar bottom face. One or more rupture lines may run down a height of the sidewall and across a portion or all of the planar bottom face. Rupture lines having even spacing may form a strip, and the strip may have a pull tab to easily tear through the sidewall. The strip may be reinforced with a string or ribbon. The rupture lines may be formed by perforating or weakening areas of the baking container.

A package for raw dough products is disclosed that includes a tray defining an interior storage space, and a collapsible baking pad having an upper surface configured to support a plurality of raw dough products and adapted for movement between a nested condition dimensioned for placement within the interior storage space of the tray for shipping and a flattened condition separated from the tray for baking the raw dough products.

Variable insert baking tray and pan device is disclosed herein. In one embodiment the device may comprise a cooking device, such as a baking pan, having a plurality of baking trays removably installed therein. The device may comprise a notch and shelf design, wherein the interior of the cooking pan provides a shelf onto which one of the baking trays may be placed for baking. The notch design may be implemented to allow all of the plurality of baking trays to be placed within the baking pan for storage. The plurality of baking trays may be sized such that a first fits into a second, which fits into a third, and so on, for stacking and storage within the baking pan. The handles of the baking pan may further comprise heat resistant material for user safety.

A mold assembly including at least three pieces that are joined together by a seal. Once joined together, the mold assembly defines an interior cavity defining a shape for a baked comestible product. A comestible substance is injected into the interior cavity through an opening in the mold assembly that is either defined by one of the three pieces or by an opening in the seal between two or more of the three pieces. After baking, the pieces of the mold can be peeled away from the comestible product by breaking the seal.

Embodiments of the invention described herein thus provide systems and methods for creating a pressed food item in an oven cooking cavity. The oven system is secured within the oven cooking cavity and is not dependent upon oven door movement or any other oven function. A movable platen is configured to move up and down with respect to a lower platen in order to press a food item during the cooking process. The movable platen may be activated via an actuating arm that extends and is manipulated from outside the oven cooking cavity. In another example, the movable platen may be activated by motor.

A cupcake baking assembly for cooking without aluminum foil includes a pot that is fillable with water thereby facilitating the water to be boiled in the pot. In this way the water is converted to steam for cooking. A cup insert is removably positionable on the pot to be heated by the steam for cooking. A lid is positionable on the cup insert when the cup insert is positioned on the pot. A plurality of cups is provided and each of the cups is fillable with a fluid food material. Each of the cups is insertable into the cup insert. Additionally, each of the cups is comprised of a thermally conductive material such that each of the cups is in thermal communication the cup insert. In this way each of the cups cooks the fluid food material contained therein.

A mold assembly including at least three pieces that are joined together by a seal. Once joined together, the mold assembly defines an interior cavity defining a shape for a baked comestible product. A comestible substance is injected into the interior cavity through an opening in the mold assembly that is either defined by one of the three pieces or by an opening in the seal between two or more of the three pieces. After baking, the pieces of the mold can be peeled away from the comestible product by breaking the seal.

Examples of a baking liner for bakable products are described. The baking liner comprises a base and a peripheral sidewall that extends upward from the base forming a liner cup that is sized to receive the baked product. The sidewall has an upper edge that forms the cup's open top and a lower edge that is adjoined to the base forming a bottom edge of the liner. An opening seam is formed in the sidewall such that it extends from the upper edge toward the lower edge and across the base. A tab is formed in proximity to the opening seam and is configured to open the sidewall into a strap-like configuration by pulling the tab and opening the sidewall and the base away from the baked product.
