ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a container for use in baking and shipping food items. The container is formed of a paperboard material and includes a heat-resistant coating applied to all of the interior surfaces of the container. The coating enables a number of food items to be positioned within the container in contact with the coating such that the container and food items can be baked to properly prepare the food items therein. After baking, the container and food items can then be wrapped or otherwise packaged for shipment without transferring the food items to a separate shipping container. The container also includes a pair of end walls that are movable with respect to the container between retaining and dispensing positions to enable the container to be configured as serving tray for the items contained therein.
