Abstract
A confectionery container () is constructed from one or more pieces of foldable material (, FIG.). A first end is closed by a wall () incorporating at least part of a dispensing chute () movable between an open position for the dispensing of items and a closed position for the containment of items within the container. The first end wall () comprises two or more end closure flaps () arranged such that they can be assembled into the first end wall after the items have been introduced into a partially formed container through the first end (). The chute () may have a base () and a pair of side walls (), at least one of the side walls () having a leading edge () which contacts a side wall () of the container to limit opening movement of the chute. The container () is preferably formed from a unitary blank (, FIG.) and the container side walls may have inner panels (, and) and outer panels (, and). A method of constructing the container is also disclosed.
