Handled Muffin Tray

Description:  Handled Muffin Tray
Item Number:  #726
Width:  10″
Production Dates:  1948-1973

The Fostoria American pattern includes a wide variety of pieces, and the items in the Trays and Platters category is no exception.  Featured here is the Handled Muffin Tray.  It looks very similar to the Handled Utility Tray; however, there are differences between the two.  The Handled Muffin Tray has higher sides, with a serrated edge that reaches outward – rather that upward.

The Handled Muffin Tray was produced from 1948 through 1973.  It is approximately 8″ in length and about 10″ wide (measured from handle to handle).  While people today might not serve muffins as much as they did in the mid-1900’s, it is still a dish that can be used for a multitude of purposes.  When not in use to serve food, it is quite beautiful on a buffet table – holding and serving fresh napkin linens to your dinner guests as they walk by.

The handles are truly a work of art.  I find them to be quite attractive, and they are extremely smooth and soft to the touch.  From the bottom of the tray to the top of the handle, they measure in at about 3½” in height.

The Handled Muffin Tray is every easy to transport from one area to the next, all with the help of those lovely handles.  Even so, I try and support the dish with at least one hand on the bottom as I move it from one area to the other.
