Aufind 12" 2 Pack Pie Carrier with Lid and Insulated Food Carrying Case Bag
Will the Aufind pie carrier keep pies and cheesecakes protected on the way to a potluck?
For regular family dinners and potlucks, this is a practical set: two lidded pie carriers plus a separate insulated bag for getting them there. I’d choose it for ordinary-height pies and cheesecakes when having a dedicated carrier matters more than getting a guaranteed fit for every pie plate. The carriers measure about 11.81 by 2.76 inches, so check your dish’s widest point and topping height before counting on a snug fit. For chilled cheesecake, the insulated bag helps with transport, but plan your cold packing rather than relying on the bag alone.

Will a 10-inch glass or deep-dish pie plate fit?
The carrier is described as about 11.81 inches across, but its usable interior diameter is what determines whether a wide rim or ruffled edge catches. Measure across the widest part of your plate, including its rim, and compare it with the carrier’s inside base—not just the pie itself. For a deep-dish pie, check that the plate sits flat without pressing against the lid. If you can’t confirm those clearances, I’d bake in a plate you already know fits rather than risk a last-minute transfer.
Is there room for meringue or whipped cream?
The approximate 2.76-inch carrier height is a useful warning for tall toppings, but it doesn’t tell you the lid’s interior clearance. Measure from the bottom of your pie plate to the highest point of the topping, then compare that with the actual space inside the closed carrier. A tall lemon meringue is exactly the kind of pie I’d check before buying; a lower cheesecake or covered fruit pie is an easier match.
Will it keep cheesecake cold on a drive?
The bag has an insulated lining, which gives you an extra layer between the food and outside temperatures, not a guaranteed hold time. Start with a thoroughly chilled cheesecake and use a cold pack if you have room to position it without pressing on the topping. For a longer drive, keep the carrier out of direct sun and move it into a refrigerator as soon as you arrive.
How do I avoid a spill or a wobbly ride?
Set the carrier on a flat surface and make sure the lid is fully seated before moving it; don’t assume a lid is locked just because it looks closed. Keep it level in the car, ideally on a flat seat or footwell rather than a sloping cushion, and avoid stacking anything on top. If you’re carrying a heavy or delicate pie, support the carrier from underneath instead of letting it swing.
How they compare
Two lidded pie carriers and a grey insulated bag make this a handy set for regular potlucks.
A clear snap-top option with a stated load limit for bakers who want to see what’s inside.
The red set adds a triple-locking system, non-slip mats and a two-compartment carry bag.
Who it suits
This set is for the home baker who brings standard-height pies, cheesecakes or similar dishes to regular gatherings and wants two reusable lidded carriers with an insulated bag in one set. I’d pick it when straightforward transport and having a spare carrier matter more than confirmed clearance for an unusually wide plate or tall topping.
What you give up
- The stated carrier size doesn’t establish the inside base diameter or lid clearance, so measure unusual pie plates and high toppings before you commit.
- For chilled desserts, pack a cold source and keep the bag out of direct sun; treat its insulation as an extra buffer, not the cooling plan.
- If a positive locking system is a must for your drive, choose a carrier whose locking mechanism is explicitly described rather than assuming these lids clamp shut.

Questions buyers ask
Does this pie carrier fit a 10-inch Pyrex plate?
The carrier’s approximate outer size alone can’t confirm a 10-inch plate will fit, especially if the plate has a broad or ruffled rim. Measure the plate at its widest point and compare it with the carrier’s inside base before using it for an important trip.
Is it a good pie carrier for deep-dish pies?
It can work if the plate sits flat and the closed lid clears the filling, but the approximate carrier height doesn’t guarantee either fit. Check both the plate’s width and the height from its base to the top of the pie.
How can I keep cheesecake cold in the car?
Chill it thoroughly first, add a cold pack if it fits without touching or squashing the topping, and keep the carrier out of direct sun. The insulated bag is an extra buffer, not a substitute for cold packing on a long drive.
Is there an ice-pack pocket?
Don’t count on a dedicated pocket. If you use a cold pack, place it where it won’t tip the carrier or press against the dessert, and check that the bag closes comfortably.
Will the lid clear a tall lemon meringue pie?
Measure the pie from the bottom of its plate to the highest topping and compare that with the clearance inside the closed carrier. With a tall meringue or whipped-cream top, I would confirm the fit before the day you need to travel.
How should I clean the carriers and insulated bag?
Wash the rigid carriers by hand and dry them before storing; gentle cleaning avoids the heat and abrasion that can wear plastic over time. Wipe the bag’s interior with a damp cloth after spills and let it dry fully before putting it away.
