Microwavable construct for heating, browning, and crisping rounded food items

摘要

A microwave energy interactive construct for heating a food item having a surface intended to be browned and/or crisped includes a flanged receiving element shaped to receive the food item. The flanged receiving element includes a plurality of hingeable flange segments, so that microwave energy interactive material disposed on the hingeable flange segments may be brought into intimate and/or proximate contact with the surface of the food item.

1. A microwave energy interactive construct for heating a food item having a surface intended to be browned and/or crisped, comprising:
a dimensionally stable base; a flanged receiving element, the flanged receiving element being shaped to receive the food item with the food item seated thereon, the flanged receiving element including a plurality of hingeable flange segments defined by a plurality of lines of disruption in the base; and microwave energy interactive material disposed on the hingeable flange segments, wherein the hingeable flange segments are operative for flexing downwardly to bring the microwave energy interactive material into close proximity with the surface of the food item seated thereon.
