Definitions

  • the present invention refers to biscuits and similar dry food products, particularly for, but not limited to, infancy consumption.
  • the above-described baby food and in particular the biscuits have some drawbacks which in some ways limit their consumption to the first infancy range.
  • the "shape" given to said foods is generally an end in itself and, consequently, the children, especially older ones, are not stimulated to interact with these foods in order to create a fancy game.
  • the shapes and the "patterns" provided in the biscuits only involve a limited participation of the child to a play, because the child can only recognize and watch these shapes and patterns or be told stories concerning them by an adult with more or less imaginative skills, but they do not effectively reach the predetermined aim: to create an interaction between child and product in order to play a game.
  • the problem underlying the present invention is that of overcoming the above limitation by providing products for babies and children, particularly but not limited to dry biscuits and similar baked products, designed in such a way as to stimulate the young consumers towards a wider range of imaginative games, thus providing a valuable help the person responsible for feeding them.
  • Said kit comprises a first plurality of biscuits 1, 2, 3, 4 of the conventional type, for example, shortcakes and the like, which have various shapes and/or have drawn on their surface parts of real or imaginary animals, characters, caricatures, objects and toys; in the illustrated cases, said biscuits are substantially square and are provided with respective relief patterns 1c, 2c, 3c, 4c which represent four portions of an imaginary "figure” which resembles a filled sack S (fig. 7), in a substantially standing position and with a smiling and winking face drawn on its surface, which face can be recognized only once said biscuits 1 to 4 have been interconnected to one another in a suitable way, as described further below (fig. 7).
  • Each biscuit of said plurality of biscuits 1, 2, 3, 4 is provided on adjacent sides with an appendix or foot (1a, 2a, 3a and 4a) protruding from the edge of the biscuit and lying substantially in the same plane, and a respective "recess" (1b, 2b, 3b, 4b) formed on the edge of said biscuit, having substantially a conjugate profile with respect to said appendix, and therefore adapted for forming a receiving seat, to obtain a fixed removable engagement with the appendices (1a-4a) of other similar biscuits.
  • the biscuits 1 to 4 constitute, as can be easily seen in the appended drawings, the elements of a little puzzle.
  • the child can then combine the different elements of the puzzle, engaging in a proper way the biscuits (1 - 4) with one another, forming the above mentioned figure (fig. 7).
  • appendices (1a-4a) and recesses (1b-4b) are obtained when the relevant biscuit (1-4) is formed and that the "patterns" on their surface may be formed as a relief or a carved line.
  • a second kit of biscuits comprises substantially semicircular biscuits 7 and 8, which are provided with an appendix 7a and a seat 8a on their straight segment 5a, 6a, wherein the appendix and the seat have a substantially conjugated profile, such as to provide a mutual engagement, almost like a removable fixed joint.
  • a major portion of said patterns is formed as a relief on said appendix 7a.
  • the shape and the size of said appendices and of corresponding recesses of biscuits/elements of an edible puzzle according to this invention are to be determined in a proper way, in order to take into account the deformations, which the biscuits undergo during the steps of rising and baking, in order to ensure the removable engagement (substantially a fixed joint) among two or more elements, as required by the puzzle game.
  • the means for mutual engagement of biscuits/puzzle elements according to the present invention may be other than the above mentioned appendices and recesses, while the biscuits themselves may have different colors, by admixing appropriate ingredients into the initial dough, as is well known in the art.
  • the substantially planar shape of the single biscuits may be varied in an arbitrary way, depending on the overall drawing to be formed or the single biscuits may even have a shape corresponding to the parts of such a drawing.
