Quadrate container for refrigerated and frozen dough intermediates

A quadrate container for refrigerated and frozen doughs, comprising;

• a generally planar element for enclosing a packaged dough intermediate, said generally planar element having first and second side edges and first and second ends, said first and second ends being substantially parallel to one another and substantially perpendicular to said first and second sides, and said generally planar element having first and second faces;
• said generally planar element having at least first, second and third lines of weakness disposed in said generally planar element and substantially parallel to said first and second sides;
• first and second fold lines formed in said generally planar element extending longitudinally of said generally planar element and running generally parallel to one another and spaced from said first and second ends;
• a sealing flap provided adjacent one of said first and second sides and substantially parallel to said one of said first and second sides for holding said generally planar element in a folded configuration;
• first, second, third and fourth panels disposed between said first and second sides, said first panel defined between one of said first and second sides and said first line of weakness, said second panel defined between said first line of weakness and said second line of weakness, said third panel defined between said second line of weakness and said third line of weakness and said fourth panel defined between said third line of weakness and one of said first and second sides;
• and
• at least one preformed container sized and configured to hold said dough intermediate and sized and configured to fit within said generally planar element when in said folded configuration to provide a portion controlled container for refrigerated and frozen doughs.
