A pouring fitment defines an inwardly facing recess that receives an outwardly extending annular holding portion of a mating container and an annular sealing bead on the fitment engages the holding portion. A lip of the fitment that defines a pouring surface is received and deformed by a cradle defined by a closure. Extending downwardly from the closure is a support member that presses the fitment against the container.

Pouring fitment with container and closure therefor

A generally annular pouring fitment is forced into a closure, thereby deforming a lip of the fitment elastically and inelastically. The closure is then releasably secured to a container causing the fitment to permanently interlock with the container. When the closure is removed, the lip defines a pouring surface of a desired three-dimensional configuration.
