Abstract

Un récipient (10) pour articles de confiserie et de nouveautés possède une partie principale tronconique (12) située au-dessus d'une partie plus petite généralement cylindrique (14). La partie (12) est destinée aux articles de confiserie, tels que de la glace ou de la mousse. Le contenu de la partie (12) est recouvert par une fermeture amovible, telle qu'une feuille collable en plastique ou carton mince, munie de préférence d'une languette que l'on saisit pour faciliter l'arrachage. La deuxième partie (14) du récipient est destinée à un article de nouveauté tel qu'un jouet, ou un jeton pouvant être échangé contre un jouet, par exemple. Afin de retenir l'article de nouveauté ou le jeton, une fermeture appropriée (18) est utilisée. La fermeture (18) a une forme de godet avec un fond arrondi et s'adapte étroitement à l'extérieur de la partie (14).
