Abstract:
A system or container for delicate baked goods is provided from two mating parts: a top part including a plurality of domes and a bottom part formed with a plurality of wells. When the two parts are mated, the domes and wells cooperate to form cavities for the individual baked goods, each baked good being grasped or secured within each cavity by a press nip to insure that the delicate crown of the baked good is not damaged.

Abstract:
A razor handle that provides maximum control when shaving is disclosed. The handle base may have a rectangular prism or tetrahedral frustum shape, with one unique side surface for each of a user's three fingertips. The base naturally stands upright when not in use, thereby keeping the blade from making direct contact with wet surfaces for extended periods of time.
