ABSTRACT:
A dispensing package, assembly and method for protectively transporting, storing and dispensing stacked nested food items subject to moisture deterioration, contamination and/or staling such as ice cream cones, cups and the like. The dispensing package is composed of a stack of nested items enclosed within an elongate packaging container formed of a relatively stiff but compliant laminate material (at least one paper layer and plastic layer) which is joined and sealed along one side to form a stiff but easily tearable integral elongate ridge member extending the length and projecting out from the package. The dispensing assembly includes the package in combination with an elongate cylindrical open-ended container wherein the extending elongate ridge of the package is received in such fashion as to maintain the package in dispensing position. The readily tearable nature of the ridge member along the length and at the bottom of the package facilitates opening of a lower end of the package for exposure and dispensing of the stacked nested food items. The packaging method includes the steps of wrapping the stack of nested items within the stiff compliant laminate material and simultaneously crimping and heat sealing the edges of the laminate material to form the elongate projecting ridge member and also the crimping and heat sealing of the ends of the package.
