The present disclosure provides an apparatus for making edible containers which includes a hollow female mold for holding a flowable food product and a male mold insertable into the hollow female mold. The two molds when assembled define a gap of preselected thickness so that when assembled with the food product in the female mold, the gap is filled with the food product in the shape of the final edible container produced once the food product is cooked or baked. An alignment and positioning mechanism is provide that keeps the two mold sections aligned but allows them to move with respect to each other during heating so that when the food product expands, the two molds can move with respect to each other while still keeping the two mold sections aligned with each other so the final edible container keeps its same general shape before and after cooking.

A conically shaped rigid taco shell or edible container, formed from a pre-made, initially flat commercially available circular tortilla is formed by baking or deep frying the tortilla within the appropriate molds. The resulting elongated or oblong oval top opening provides a tidy, convenient, and easy to handle package for eating typical taco ingredients or other food products. The edible container can have either a symmetrical or arc shaped cross section.

The present disclosure relates to low-sugar, and preferably sugar-free, edible and/or biodegradable materials, and to edible and/or biodegradable vessels for holding foods and liquids for consumption. Specifically, the disclosure relates to sugar-free edible and/or biodegradable cups, straws, and other vessels, capable of holding hot and/or cold liquids for extended periods of time. The present disclosure and its embodiments further relates to a sugar free edible and/or biodegradable vessel made from natural ingredients. The vessel may have an extended shelf life, and is sturdy enough to be used for a variety of applications.

The present invention relates to a device for ejecting items from a cake and a method of assembling the device. The device comprises a tube for receiving the items, a moveable member disposed within the tube, a spring configured to urge the moveable member away from a first position to a second position, and a catch mechanism configured to lock the moveable member in the first position against the force of the spring. Releasing the catch mechanism causes the moveable member to move from the first position to the second position, thereby propelling the items from the tube. The invention further relates to a platform comprising a device for ejecting items from a cake, wherein the platform includes a surface for supporting the cake and a method for preparing a cake on such a platform. The present invention also relates to a device that is positioned in a cake or other confection, a cake comprising said cake device, and a method for preparing a cake having such a device.
