## Abstract

A dispensing baked good container assembly includes a container having a top and a bottom and a cavity between the top and the bottom configured to hold baked good ingredients. The container includes a closure member at the top configured to be opened. A pastry bag is configured to extend from the container. The pastry bag is initially packed in the cavity and configured to be deployed from the container after the container is opened. The pastry bag is open to the cavity such that items are configured to be passed through the cavity into the pastry bag after being deployed for mixing and dispensing of the baked good ingredients from the pastry bag.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A dispensing baked good container assembly comprising:
a container having a top and a bottom, the container having a cavity between the top and the bottom configured to hold baked good ingredients, the container having a closure member at the top configured to be opened; and
a pastry bag configured to extend from the container, the pastry bag being initially packed in the cavity, the pastry bag configured to be deployed from the container after the container is opened, the pastry bag being open to the cavity such that items are configured to be passed through the cavity into the pastry bag after being deployed for mixing and dispensing of the baked good ingredients from the pastry bag.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The dispensing baked good container assembly of claim 1, wherein the pastry bag is coupled to the container.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The dispensing baked good container assembly of claim 1, wherein the closure member is a removable lid.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The dispensing baked good container assembly of claim 1, wherein the closure member is threadably coupled to the container.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The dispensing baked good container assembly of claim 1, wherein the closure member is openable by cutting the closure member to access the cavity.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The dispensing baked good container assembly of claim 1, wherein the closure member is adhered to the container.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)
