ABSTRACT:
A package includes two or more individual cup dispensing units, each unit comprising a carton holding a stack of nested tapered cups. Each carton of a dispensing unit is of paperboard having a generally circular opening in a top wall through which the tapered cups protrude, and which opening is surrounded by a series of short radial knife cuts defining a series of yieldable tabs on the wall which permit the topmost protruding cup to be pulled through the opening, but which function to restrain the cups immediately below. The bottom wall of the carton is formed with a generally circular opening, either fully cut-out or defined by a series of radial cuts, which permits the protruding tapered cups of a similar, adjacent carton to extend through the bottom opening into the carton to form a compact, multiple dispensing unit package which is shrink wrapped for shipping and display.
