A convertible and folding cooking pan includes a base plate and a plurality of pivotable and adjustable flanges removably coupled thereto. The flanges are moveable from a first substantially flat position to a second substantially upright position. When in the substantially upright position, the flanges are securely connected to define a baking zone with base plate and the flanges. In one embodiment, a plurality of sets of flanges are configured on the base plate to enable the selectable configuration of a first baking zone using the first set of flanges or a second, differently-sized baking zone using the second set of flanges.

A multi-functional baking pan, comprising: a base plate;a plurality of first flanges pivotably connected to the base plate, the plurality of first flanges adjustable between at least a first flattened position and a second upright position, the first flanges being coplanar with the base plate when in the first flattened position and perpendicular or oblique to the base plate when in the second upright position; anda plurality of second flanges, each of the second flanges pivotably connected to the base plate, the plurality of second flanges adjustable between at least a third flattened position and a fourth upright position, the second flanges being coplanar with the base plate when in the third flattened position and perpendicular or oblique to the base plate when in the fourth upright position,wherein the flanges are positioned and arranged so that: (a) when the first flanges are in the first flattened position and the second flanges are in the third flattened position, each of the plurality of first flanges and each of the plurality of second flanges are arranged substantially flat with the base plate;(b) when the first flanges are in the second upright position and the second flanges are in the third flattened position, the plurality of first flanges are upright with respect to the base plate, the plurality of first flanges in the second upright position defining with the base plate a first baking zone which is open-topped with liquid tight sides and flat bottom, the first baking zone enclosed laterally on all sides by the first flanges when the first flanges are in the second upright position, the second flanges in the third flattened position forming at least part of the flat bottom of the first baking zone; and(c) when the second flanges are in the fourth upright position and the first flanges are in the first flattened position, the plurality of second flanges are upright with respect to the base plate, the plurality of second flanges in the fourth upright position defining with the base plate a second baking zone which is open-topped with liquid tight sides and flat bottom, the second baking zone having different dimensions than the first baking zone, the second baking zone enclosed laterally on all sides by the second flanges when the second flanges are in the fourth upright position. 2. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 1, wherein the each of the plurality of first flanges have a first height in the second upright position and each of the plurality of second flanges have a second height in the fourth position, the second height being different from the first height. 3. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 2, wherein the first baking zone has a depth substantially equal to the first height, and the second baking zone has a depth substantially equal to the second height. 4. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 1, wherein the base plate is rectangular. 5. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 1, wherein the first flanges and the second flanges are constructed at least from a silicone material. 6. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 5, wherein the silicone material is capable of withstanding heat of up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit. 7. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 5, wherein the first flanges and the second flanges each include at least a rigid support member. 8. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 7, wherein the rigid support member is metal. 9. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 1, wherein a top surface of the second flanges when the second flanges are in the third flattened position is co-planar with a top surface of the base plate. 10. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 9, wherein the base plate includes cutouts configured to receive the second flanges when the second flanges are in the third flattened position. 11. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 9, wherein a top surface of the first flanges when the first flanges are in the first flattened position is co-planar with a top surface of the base plate. 12. The multifunctional baking pan of claim 1, wherein, when the first flanges are in the first flattened position, and the second flanges are in the third flattened position, the multifunctional baking pan forms a cookie sheet having a baking surface which includes portions of the first flanges, the second flanges, and the base plate. 13. A multi-functional baking pan, comprising: a base plate;a plurality of first flanges removably and pivotably connected to the base plate, the first flanges having a first flattened position and a second upright position, the first flanges being coplanar with the base plate when in the first flattened position and perpendicular or oblique to the base plate when in the second upright position; anda plurality of second flanges removably and pivotably connected to the base plate, the second flanges having a third flattened position and a fourth flattened position, the second flanges being coplanar with the base plate when in the third flattened position, and perpendicular or oblique to the base plate when in the fourth upright position wherein the flanges are positioned and arranged so that: (a) a first baking zone which is open-topped with liquid tight sides and flat bottom is defined when the first flanges are pivoted to a second upright position and the second flanges are in the third flattened position, the first baking zone enclosed laterally on all sides by the first flanges when the first flanges are in the second upright position, the second flanges in the third flattened position forming at least part of the flat bottom of the first baking zone; and(b) a second baking zone which is open-topped with liquid tight sides and flat bottom is defined when the second flanges are pivoted to the fourth upright position, the second baking zone enclosed laterally on all sides by the second flanges when the second flanges are in the fourth upright position. 14. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 13, wherein the base plate, the plurality of first flanges and the plurality of second flanges are constructed with at least a silicone material. 15. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 14, wherein the plurality of first flanges are configured to be secured at least partially to one another when pivoted to the second upright position. 16. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 15, wherein the plurality of first flanges are secured to one another by at least engaging a male member associated with one of the plurality of first flanges with a female member associated with an adjacent one of the plurality of first flanges. 17. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 13, wherein the plurality of second flanges are configured to be secured at least partially to one another when pivoted to the fourth upright position. 18. The multi-functional baking pan of claim 17, wherein the plurality of second flanges are secured to one another by at least engaging a male member associated with one of the plurality of second flanges with a female member associated with an adjacent one of the plurality of second flanges. 19.
