ABSTRACT:
A food product package is disclosed for packing a plurality of fragile shells or bowls composed of a consumable and digestible material consisting of a circular base joining in a continuous circular sidewall having a plurality of evenly spaced semicircular convolutions wherein each convolution is of the same diameter to provide combined or over-all strength. The shell or bowl composition presents a textured exterior surface visually indicative of an edible product. The textured surface is characterized as being granular having a wall thickness and cross-section which is brittle and capable of being broken apart for ready consumption. The plurality of shells or bowls are nested together in a stack confined between opposing inner surfaces of a U-shaped, load carrying protective form captured in a unitary package by a wrap of plastic film. The protective form includes elongated sidewalls projecting from opposite ends of a base on which the stack rests. The sidewalls are of greater length than the height of the stack so that terminating end portions extend beyond the stack height in position to receive and absorb impact loads and shocks to the exclusion of the stack.
