Frozen desserts contained in a microwave active packaging are disclosed. In some embodiments, the microwave active packaging includes a microwave active layer configured to selectively heat the contents of the microwave active packaging. The contents may include a first layer of frozen food, and one or more additional topping layers. When placed into a microwave, the microwave active layer causes the one or more additional topping layers to heat, while the first layer is maintained at or below a freezing temperature. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

An assembly includes foodstuff packaging, a first foodstuff, and a second foodstuff. The foodstuff packaging includes a portion configured to generate heat. The first foodstuff is disposed within the foodstuff packaging and includes a first foodstuff material configured to transition from a first state to a second state upon application of the heat. The second foodstuff is disposed within the foodstuff packaging and is (i) separated from the first foodstuff when the first foodstuff is arranged in the first state and (ii) comingled with the first foodstuff when the first foodstuff is arranged in the second state to define a comingled foodstuff.
