Evelots 10-Inch Airtight Food Storage Container with Lid - BPA-Free Clear Plastic
Will the Evelots pie carriers keep my pies safe on the way to a potluck, and will they fit the way I bake?
For ordinary pies, cakes and other baked goods up to 10 inches wide, the Evelots four-pack is a practical pie carrier set for family gatherings: each has a secure seal and can be used as a covered cake carrier or flipped into a pie holder. I’d choose it if you want reusable covers for several bakes, rather than balancing foil over a pie in the car. The 11 x 11 x 3.5-inch dimensions make this a low-profile style, so the main question is whether your pie fits the carrier—not just whether its plate does. Here’s how I’d decide before taking one to a potluck.

Will it carry a pie in its glass Pyrex dish?
I wouldn’t count on it. These carriers are sized for baked goods up to 10 inches wide, and that is different from fitting a glass dish with handles or a fluted edge inside. For the safest fit, cool the pie, transfer it to the carrier, and measure the pie itself—including any overhanging crust—before you commit to this style.
Is there enough room for a deep-dish or tall pie?
Choose this for a standard-height pie or a modestly decorated cake, not a mile-high meringue or a tall fruit pie. The stated 3.5-inch depth isn’t a dependable measure of usable space above the filling, so don’t risk delicate toppings that need generous clearance. If height matters more than having four carriers, the Essaware is the better style to investigate.
Will the lid stay on during a car ride?
The secure seal is useful for containing the food, but it cannot replace careful handling if the carrier is jostled. Set it level on the car floor or a flat surface, keep it away from loose bags, and don’t put another loaded carrier on top unless you have confirmed the stack is stable. For longer drives, I’d still take corners gently and keep the carrier within reach rather than on a crowded seat.
Can I stack several pies in the fridge or car?
The four individual carriers make it easier to cover multiple pies without relying on foil, but I wouldn’t assume they lock together or form a secure stack. In the fridge, give each one a flat shelf and avoid putting weight on the lid. In the car, transport them side by side on a level surface.
How should I wash and freeze them?
They’re dishwasher-safe and freezer-safe, but I’d hand-wash the lids when convenient and keep them away from intense drying heat to help preserve their shape. For freezing a pie, wrap it closely first; a reusable carrier is handy protection, but its seal shouldn’t replace proper freezer wrapping for longer storage.
How they compare
Four reusable, sealed carriers for standard pies and cakes up to 10 inches wide.
A 12-inch round pie keeper with a burgundy seal for wider, flatter bakes.
A carrying case for transporting multiple pies or a layered cake; check pan size first.
Who it suits
This set is for the home baker who brings several standard-size pies, cakes or pastries to potlucks and wants reusable covers that can also protect leftovers in the fridge or freezer. Buy it when four separate carriers matter more than carrying a pie in its baking dish or accommodating a very tall topping.
What you give up
- You get a practical four-pack, not a tall travel case: unusually high toppings and fragile decorations need more clearance and firmer protection.
When another one is the better buy
Tupperware Burgundy Pie Keeper, Classic Round Airtight Container, 12 in: Choose the Tupperware Pie Keeper when you want a round carrier for a wider pie and prefer its 12-inch format and burgundy seal. Its shallower profile makes it a poor choice for tall toppings.
Essaware Pie SAFE - Pie, Cake, Dessert Travel & Storage Container, Adjustable Shelf - Fits max 10.5" wide and smaller pans: Choose the Essaware Pie SAFE when transporting multiple pies or a layered cake in a carrying case matters more than having four separate covers. Check your pan, including handles, against its stated size limit before choosing it.
Questions buyers ask
Can a pie keeper hold a glass pie pan inside?
Not necessarily: the 10-inch capacity refers to the baked good, not confirmed room for a dish. Check whether the dish sits inside without pressing against the sides or preventing the lid from closing; if it does not, transfer the cooled pie.
What should I do if a pie carrier lid pops off in the car?
Before driving, check that the seal is fully seated all the way around. If you need a carrier that stays closed through bumps without relying on careful placement, choose one with a confirmed locking mechanism.
Can I take several pies to Thanksgiving in these?
Yes—the four-pack gives you separate carriers for multiple baked goods. For a crowded holiday load, keep them where luggage or groceries can’t press on the lids.
Will the carrier protect lemon meringue or a high-crust pie?
It’s better suited to standard-height pies; before closing, check that the lid clears the topping without touching it. If it does not, use a carrier with confirmed extra height.
Can I freeze a whole pie in a plastic pie keeper?
Yes. Let the pie cool fully before placing it in the freezer-safe carrier.
Will dishwasher heat warp a plastic pie carrier?
Dishwasher-safe means machine washing is supported, but it doesn’t guarantee zero heat-related wear. Use the top rack if it fits the carrier.
