DUAL DECKED CAKE STACKING TRAY WITH ALUMINUM FOIL INNER LINING
TO RETAIN WARM TEMPERATURE


FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to the field of bakery equipment and more particularly
relates to a dual-decked cake stacking tray designed to retain the warmth of freshly
baked cakes for an extended period.
10 DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART
Bakeries use plastic trays to store and transport cakes after they are removed from
the oven. But these trays do not have any insulating properties, leading to the ~:;akes
losing their warmth quickly and affecting their taste when served. This rapid cooling
15 can diminish the quality and appeal of the baked goods.
The present invention aims to overcome this limitation by designing a dual-decked
cake stacking tray with an aluminum foil inner·lining. This design provides a structured
way to store and transport cakes and also retains their warmth for a longer period. The
tray features a plastic outer and inner tray, with the inner tray being adjustable to
20 accommodate different cake sizes. A sliding mechanism and lock ensure the inner
tray can be securely positioned at the desired height. And handles on the top of the
tray facilitate easy lifting and carrying. The aluminum foil lining within the walls of both
decks helps maintain the temperature of the cakes, ensuring they stay warm and
delicious for an extended time.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention presents· a dual-decked cake stacking tray designed to maintain the
warmth of freshly baked cakes for an extended period. The tray features a plastic outer
structure with an inner plastic tray, both equipped with an aluminum foil lining that
helps retain heat. The dual-deck design allows the inner deck to be adjusted vertically,
accommodating various sizes of cakes. This adjustability is facilitated by a sliding
mechanism and a lock to secure the desired height. Handles on the top of the tray ensure easy lifting and transport. This design solves the issue of cakes cooling down
quickly after baking, ensuring they remain warm and flavourful for a longer duration.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION WITH REFERENCE DRAWING
1. PLASTIC OUTER TRAY
The external structure of the tray that provides the overall form: stability, and
protection. It is made of plastic for durability and easy cleaning.
2. PLASTIC INNER TRAY
A separate tray that fits inside the outer tray and is designed to hold the baked
cakes directly. It is also made of plastic for similar reasons as the outer tray.
3. SLIDING INNER DECK
A movable platform within the inner tray that can be raised or lowered to
accommodate cakes of various sizes. This adjustability ensures the tray can
handle different types of baked goods.
4. SLIDING LOCK
A mechanism that secures the sliding inner deck in place once the desired
height is set. This lock ensures the deck remains stable during storage and
transport.


5. HANDLE
A gripping feature located on the top sides of the tray, allowing users to lift and
carry the tray easily. Handles are typically designed to be ergonomic for
comfortable use.
6. ALUMINUM FOIL LINING
A thin layer of aluminum foil that lines the inner walls of both the outer and inner trays.
This lining acts as an insulator, reflecting heat back into the tray and helping to retain
the warmth of the baked cakes for a longer period.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a dual-decked cake stacking tray designed to maintain the
warmth of freshly baked cakes for an extended period, solving the issue of rapid
15 cooling experienced with conventional plastic trays.
The tray comprises a plastic outer tray (1) that provides the overall structure and
stability. Inside this outer tray, a plastic inner tray (2) is fitted, which directly holds the
baked cakes.
To accommodate various sizes of cakes, the inner tray is equipped with a sliding inner
20 deck (3) that can be raised or lowered as needed.
This adjustability is facilitated by a sliding mechanism and secured with a sliding lock
(4) to maintain the desired height of the inner deck .
Both the outer and inner trays are lined with aluminum foil (6) along their inner walls.
25 This lining is an insulator, reflecting heat back into the tray and helping to retain the
30
warmth of the cakes for a longer duration.
The aluminum foil lining is a component that differentiates this invention from standard
. plastic trays, as it directly solves the problem of heat loss.
To ensure easy transport, the tray is equipped with handles (5) on the top sides. These
handles allow users to lift and carry the tray comfortably, making it convenient to move
the cakes from one location to another. The combination of the dual-deck design,
adjustable inner deck; secure locking mechanism, and insulating aluminum foil lining makes this tray a practical and effective solution for bakeries aiming to serve warm
and delicious cakes to their customers.

ADVANTAGES
:l> The aluminum foil lining helps retain the heat of freshly baked cakes for a
longer period, ensuring they remain warm and tasty when served.
10 :l> The sliding inner deck allows the tray to accommodate various sizes of
cakes, providing flexibility for different types of baked goods.
