Abstract
A container for deviled eggs and the like includes a double, transparent plate assembly molded to generally conform to the contours of a deviled egg. Each plate assembly is designed to hold one or more deviled eggs. Into the upper plate of each assembly are molded elliptical hemispheres for storing the yolk mixture of each deviled egg. Into the lower plate of the assembly are molded elliptical hemispheres which are larger than those of the upper plate and which house the white of each deviled egg. The outer peripheral surface surrounding each elliptical hemisphere in the upper plate acts as a shoulder which abuts against and holds the white portion of each deviled egg snuggly in its molded elliptical hemisphere.
