Abstract:
Disposable three dimensional serving utensils that can be incorporated into a pizza box, a cake box or other container, via incised and scored blanks, from which disposable utensils, such as spatulas and knives, can be formed.

Claim (Index 7):
A disposable serving utensil apparatus comprised of bendable material that can be incised, scored and folded and whose stiffness is approximately equivalent to cardboard and which is approximately planar, said apparatus comprising:\n one short end, divided bilaterally by\n a center handle cut that\n extends most of the way to an incised handle fold line; \n \n a right side and a left side that\n extend from the one short end to a junction of the right side with the left side; \n contain a right tab that is a mirror image to a left tab; \n converge toward each other to form the right tab and the left tab and which then diverge away from each other until they reach the approximate end of the center handle cut; \n are approximately parallel to each other from the approximate end of the center handle cut to the approximate intersection of the incised center line with the right incised flex line and the left incised flex line; \n extend away from each other bilaterally and approximately symmetrically to a point prior to their junction with each other; \n converge toward each other bilaterally and approximately symmetrically to a point where they join with each other; \n are approximately mirror images of each other along the incised center crease line and the center handle cut; \n a right folding handle, extending from the short end to the incised handle fold line; a left folding handle, extending from the short end to the incised handle fold line; an incised handle fold line, extending approximately orthogonally from the right side to the left side, between\n an interior end of the center handle cut and \n a right interior insertion slot and a left interior insertion slot; \n a right incised flex line that extends\n from a point on the incised center crease line that is located between\n the right interior insertion slot and \n approximately the point where the right side begins to diverge away from the left side before both the sides join with each other \n \n to approximately the point where the right side begins to converge toward the left side; \n a left incised flex line that extends\n from a point on the incised center crease line that is located between\n the left interior insertion slot and \n approximately the point where the left side begins to diverge away from the right side before both the sides join with each other \n \n to approximately the point where the left side begins to converge toward the right side; \n an incised center crease line that extends\n from the interior end of the center handle cut \n to the junction of the right side with the left side; \n a right tab, on the short end, conformably made to be inserted into a right interior insertion slot; a left tab, on the short end, conformably made to be inserted into a left interior insertion slot; a right interior insertion slot located conformably made to receive a right tab and located approximately between\n the point where the right incised flex line intersects the incised center crease line and \n the point where the incised handle fold line intersects the right side; \n a left interior insertion slot located conformable made to receive a left tab and located approximately between\n the point where the left incised flex line intersects the incised center crease line and \n the point where the incised handle fold line intersects the left side; \n an incised right handle flex line extending from the right tab to a point proximally located to the right interior insertion slot; and an incised left handle flex line extending from the left tab to a point proximally located to the left interior insertion slot;
