 Problems to be solved by the invention

[0005] Therefore, the present invention is intended to provide a containerized confectionery or other food in a container that can be distributed without much effort than in the past.

 Means for solving the problem

 In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention takes the following technical means.

 (1) In the food in a container according to the present invention, the food material filled in the container-shaped cover corresponding to the outer shape of the food is cooled and solidified, and the solidified food has a fixed shape and the cover can be broken. It has a good tearing property, and it is characterized in that the food can be taken out by tearing and breaking the cover.

[0007] (1) In this packaged food, the food material is a container-shaped cover corresponding to the outer shape of the food. Since it is cooled and solidified, it is not necessary to carry out the process of taking out the solidified food and packing it in the same way as before. It can also function as a shape holding container. Then, when eating, tear the tearable cover that can be broken, and take out the food with the regularity.

 [0008] Examples of the food material include mousse confectionery, furan, and the like that have fluidity and solidify when poured into a power bar and cooled to become regular.

 [0009] The cover can be formed by vacuum molding of a synthetic resin having tearability such as polystyrene resin or polypropylene resin. When a synthetic resin is used as the cover, a cover having a fixed shape can be manufactured in a large amount at a low cost.

[0010] The cross-sectional shape of the cover can be implemented in various shapes such as a quadrangle, a triangle, a circle, a flower, and an animal. Further, a plurality of covers may be continuous or single. For example, it may be formed as a continuous body of five pieces, and the confectionery in a container using the same may be stored in a box and distributed as a set of five pieces. An auxiliary tear line may be formed between the covers of the five continuous bodies so that they can be easily separated one by one.

[0011] (2) When confectionery is selected as the food, the confectionery in the container is cooled and solidified by the confectionery material filled in the container-shaped cover corresponding to the outer shape of the confectionery. The cover has a shape that can be held and has a tearability that can be broken by hand, and the cover can be torn and broken to take out the confectionery.

 In the confectionery in this container, the confectionery material is filled in a container-shaped cover corresponding to the outer shape of the confectionery and cooled and solidified, so that the aluminum-type power cooled and solidified confectionery is taken out and packaged as before. The cover that functions as a cooling mold that does not need to be processed can be used as a shape-holding container during distribution. When eating, a bow that can be broken by hand is torn and broken, and a confectionery having a fixed shape that can be held by hand is taken out.

[0012] (2) The cover may be formed of a synthetic resin having a detachability from food. If comprised in this way, food will be taken out even if it does not perform a mold release process to the cover surface in particular It is possible to prevent the food material from remaining on the cover and being wasted when eating. As the synthetic resin, polystyrene resin and polypropylene resin can be shown in column f.

 [0013] (3) The cut for breaking the cover may be formed in a part of the outer peripheral edge of the cover. With such a configuration, even a child who does not have much power can easily break the cover by hand and take out the food starting from the cut.

 [0014] (4) Sponge dough may be attached to the end face of food (for example, confectionery) at the open end of the cover. If comprised in this way, sponge cloth can interpose like a cushion between a confectionery and the mounting base of the storage box, and it can prevent a confectionery sticking to the mounting base of a box.

 [0015] (5) The cover may have a recess at the bottom. If comprised in this way, a hollow will be formed in the top part (corresponding to the bottom part of the cover) of the solidified food, and when eating, the food is taken out and placed on a plate etc., and syrup or Seasoning liquids such as sauces and seasonings can be placed.

 [0016] (6) This food production storage container is a cover having a container shape corresponding to the outer shape of the food that is filled with food material and cooled and solidified, and the cover has a tearable tearability. The cover is torn and broken so that food can be taken out.

 [0017] With this food production storage container, the food material is filled in a container-shaped cover corresponding to the outer shape of the food and cooled and solidified, so that the aluminum mold force is cooled and solidified as before. The cover that functions as a cooling mold can be made to function as a shape-retaining container at the time of distribution. Then, when eating, the tearable tearing cover is torn and the food is taken out.

 The invention's effect

 [0018] The present invention is configured as described above and has the following effects.

[0019] Since the cover that functions as a cooling mold can be used as it is as a shape-maintaining container during distribution, the food in a container that can be distributed without much effort than before is provided. be able to. Brief Description of Drawings
