Hi again; I'm new to google answers and I hope I didn't come off too
strong in my last clarification. Actually I need something like those
pictures http://www.blendins.com/pan.htm . If it serves the function
what we need then it doesn't have to be exact but should be close.
Thanks again for your question and suggestion.

Might something like this fit the bill:

It's not "exact" but it does look "close".

I really am looking for disposable plastic pans similiar in shape to
the silicon ones you showed me or like these in this picture here. The
ones you showed me look like not disposable and more costly then
plastic disposable ones.

Hello shlomodogan-ga,

I've been working on your question and found some vendors that might
be able to provide you with muffin pans that could meet your needs
although none of them look exactly like the sample in your photos.
Where did you obtain the muffin pans in your pictures -- what
country/city and what type of store? Do they have any writing on them
-- perhaps a part number or brand name? How will you use these muffin
pans? It might be possible to search for them with the intended use in
mind, i.e., baked goods or frozen novelties. Can you tell us anything
else about these muffin pans or trays? I look forward to your
clarification.

Given the size of the purchase you need, you might want to consider a
custom plastics packaging firm, like these folks:

For instance, take a look at the disposable cookie tray they made for a client:

I'd be glad to contact them for you, but in my experience, you're much
better off initiating the contact yourself, as they will want to know
some details of your order than I simply can't provide.

Let me know what you think.

The muffin pans were obtained in a bakery in the Northeast (Brooklyn

There is no writing on them and no box where they came from.
  >>>How will you use these muffin pans?. It might be possible to

 Actually the last question was right on target. I need to use them to
make frozen novelties or more specifically frozen portion controlled
servings of Ice Cream, frozen Custard, Frozen Yogurt. But they pans
that we used in the picture came from a bakery that used them for
maybe baking and selling muffins. Thanks again for the questions and I
hope this helps to clarify the questions.  Here again is the link.

Hello shlomodogan-ga,

Thank you for your clarification. After extensive searching I have not
found a source for the exact same plastic trays that you show in your
sample pictures. However, I've found lots of sources for plastics
packaging manufacturers who have the capacity to provide you with
custom products to meet your specifications if none of their similar
standard disposable plastic trays meet your needs.

Please let me know if I should identify some manufacturers that you
could work with to find the perfect molds for your frozen specialty
products.

I look forward to your clarification.

Hello again, The plastic trays do not have to be exact but reasonably
close to do the job. I think I gave the dimensions in the pictures. I
am not really interested in speaking to manufacturers to have them
start from scratch because that would significantly raise the price. I
alreayd have someone that could make them around the New England area
but it is far too expensive. What we need is some manufacturers that
have something similar but with much cheaper prices. That is why
overseas could also be an option.

Hello again shlomodogan-ga,

Thank you for the additional information. You have clearly done a lot
of research already. In order not to repeat your research or to go off
in the wrong direction, can you please tell us what is the price
quoted to you by the manufacturer in New England? Please also tell us
the "much cheaper" price range that would be acceptable to you.
Thanks.
