ABSTRACT:
A package including a base portion formed of a semi-rigid material so as to be self-supporting. The base portion has a plurality of receptacles, each of which is individually separably joined to all adjacent receptacles by a connecting rim flange. The receptacles are disposed in a plurality of columns and rows in the base portion and the receptacles each have an opening defined by the connecting rim flange and extend from the connecting rim flange on one side thereof. The package also includes a cover portion joined to the base portion for entirely covering the receptacle openings including a plurality of cover segments disposed in a plurality of columns and rows. The cover segments each cooperate with the connecting rim flange of one of the receptacles and each are individually separably joined to all adjacent cover segments. The package is formed such that each of the receptacles and cover segments define a self-contained package unit where all of the self-contained package units together define a multi-unit package comprised of a plurality of the self-contained package units disposed in a plurality of rows and columns. The self-contained package units each are individually separably joined to all adjacent self-contained package units and the multi-unit package is disposed in a reverse-folded position. Further, the reverse-folded position is such that the receptacles extend interiorly thereof in confronting relation with the cover portion facing exteriorly thereof such that remote rows of the receptacles are in closely adjacent relation with the multi-unit package maintained in the reverse-folded position.
