ABSTRACT:
A package (10) including a gable-shaped top is disclosed including an outer carton (12) and an inner liner (14). The carton (12) is formed from a single layer blank (16) which is printed only on the outer surface (17). The gable-shaped top includes first and second side panels (54, 66) which are divided into first and second right triangles (84, 86) and an isosceles trapezoid (88) by fold lines (74, 76) including perforations (82). End flaps (90, 92) are further provided having lengths equal to the lengths of the legs of the right triangles (84, 86) and having widths equal to the lengths of the minor bases of the isosceles trapezoids (88). The top panel (94) of the gable-shaped top is held with the inside surfaces (19) of the right triangles (84, 86) abutting with the inside surfaces (19) of the front and back panels (46, 60), with the end flaps (90, 92) extending perpendicularly between the legs of the right triangles (84, 86), and with the inside surface (19) of the top panel (94) abutting with the inside surfaces (19) of the end flaps (90, 92), the legs of the right triangles (84, 86) and the top edge of the front panel (46) giving the package (10) a totally finished appearance.
