A cylindrically shaped, open, rimmed topped carton suitable for containing ice cream or the like includes a polygonal shaped base and a pair of side wall sections formed integral with the base which are joined together along mutual edges to provide an essentially cylindrical exterior surface defining a rimmed circular opening in one end of the carton opposite the base. A plurality of Y-shaped pleats are provided in lower portions of the side walls at circumferentially spaced intervals corresponding to the juncture of the edges defining the polygonal base to provide a smooth transition of the side walls from an angular cross-section at the base to a rimmed circular cross-section at the open end of the carton. A rolled rim extends outwardly from the cylindrical side walls to assure tight frictional engagement with a removable lid while also facilitating lid removal.
