Pop Top Disposable Creamer Container

Abstract

A disposable creamer container for holding and storing an adequate amount of liquid in a container which is easy to open and stack. The disposable creamer container includes a base, a sidewall extending upwardly therefrom, and an open upper end defining an interior volume configured to store a volume of liquid therein, wherein the sidewall includes a notched interior section defining a pour spout. A perimeter flange extends outwardly and perpendicularly from an upper perimeter edge of the sidewall. A first group of ridges is disposed on a bottom surface of the base to facilitate end-to-end stacking of multiple containers. A lid is removably secured to the perimeter flange of the sidewall, which forms an airtight seal until the container is opened. The container can be adapted to provide creamer in 0.75 ounce and one ounce sizes in order to satisfy consumer needs and reduce overall landfill waste.

I claim:

         3 ) The disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the first group of ridges comprises a plurality of ridges disposed parallel to each other, each individual ridge defining a space between itself an adjacent ridge. 
     
     
         4 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 3 , wherein the first group of ridges is configured to allow for the base of a first creamer container to be securely stacked on the base of a second creamer container. 
     
     
         5 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the lid is removably secured to the perimeter flange of the sidewall via an adhesive. 
     
     
         6 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the lid is configured to maintain an airtight seal while secured to the perimeter flange of the sidewall. 
     
     
         7 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the lid comprises a pull tab disposed on an underside thereof, wherein the pull tab extends outwardly past the sidewall above the pour spout when the lid is secured to the perimeter flange. 
     
     
         8 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the sidewall comprises semi-pliable construction allowing for deformation under light pressure while maintaining overall structure shape. 
     
     
         9 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the interior volume of the container body is configured to hold 0.75 fluid ounces of liquid. 
     
     
         10 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 1 , wherein the interior volume of the container body is configured to hold 1.0 fluid ounces of liquid. 
     
     
         11 ) A disposable creamer container, comprising:
 a container body having a base, a sidewall extending upwardly from an outer perimeter of the base, and an open upper end defining an interior volume configured to store a volume of liquid therein, wherein the sidewall includes a notched interior section defining a pour spout;   a perimeter flange extending outwardly and perpendicularly from an upper perimeter edge of the sidewall;   a first group of ridges disposed on a bottom surface of the base;   a second group of ridges disposed on an exterior side of the sidewall, the second group of ridges including individual ridges disposed in a parallel arrangement and extending between the base and the upper end of the sidewall;   a lid removably secured to the perimeter flange of the sidewall.   
     
     
         12 ) The disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the sidewall comprises a unitary construction having tubular dimensions. 
     
     
         13 ) The disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the first group of ridges comprises a plurality of ridges disposed parallel to each other, each individual ridge defining a space between itself an adjacent ridge. 
     
     
         14 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 13 , wherein the first group of ridges is configured to allow for the base of a first creamer container to be securely stacked on the base of a second creamer container. 
     
     
         15 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the lid is removably secured to the perimeter flange of the sidewall via an adhesive. 
     
     
         16 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the lid is configured to maintain an airtight seal while secured to the perimeter flange of the sidewall. 
     
     
         17 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the lid comprises a pull tab disposed on an underside thereof, wherein the pull tab extends outwardly past the sidewall above the pour spout when the lid is secured to the perimeter flange. 
     
     
         18 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the sidewall comprises semi-pliable construction allowing for deformation under light pressure while maintaining overall structure shape. 
     
     
         19 ) The pop top disposable creamer container of  claim 11 , wherein the interior volume of the container body is configured to hold 0.75 fluid ounces of liquid.
