Abstract
A cake container having a base () and a transparent cover () lying over the base, both being constructed of heat-formed plastic sheets, with peripheries of the base and cover securely latched together in a way that avoids sudden movement during unlatching. The base has a largely vertical peripheral wall () forming a plurality of dimples (), and the cover has a lower peripheral wall () with a plurality of dimple-receiving regions (). Each dimple-receiving region includes a chimney () that receives a dimple until the dimple lies at the top portion () of the chimney. The cover then can be turned so the dimple enters a dimple-receiving cavity () that prevents the cover from moving up off the base until the cover is turned back. The cover has a plurality of vertical ribs () forming wide panels () and forming narrow panels () between the wide panels. Stickers () adhere to peripheries of the cover and base to show the customer that there has been no tampering.
