More Information
Summary:A drinking system comprises a container assembly having an inner container 10 which may be cylindro-conical, of edible material which may be packaged in a hygiene wrapping 20, and an outer container 30 which supports the inner container. The wrapping may be of light-weight flexible material, shaped and dimensioned such that the edible container fits in it reasonably snugly but can be readily removed, and may be heat shrunk onto the inner container. Cut-outs 21, or projecting ears may allow the inner container to be grasped for easy removal. Perforations 22 down its side may allow the wrapping to be torn away from the inner container. The wrapping may extend above the rim of the inner container around at least part of the rim, so that it can be turned outwardly and downwardly over the rim of the outer container. The wrapping may be coloured and/or printed with informative and/or attractive data and/or graphics. The outer container frame may have cut-outs 31, deeper than the cut-outs in the wrapping, to allow it to be grasped for easy removal, and a hole 32 in its base. A set of containers, each in its own wrapping, may be arranged in a tray or stacked in a column.
