  • the upper container includes a top 16 whi is fitted to the sidewall 12 or is integrally formed therewith.
  • the top lip 18 of the lower container 4 includes a lip formation which is interlockable wi a complementary lip 20 formed on the lower edge of the sidewall 12.
  • the lips 18 and may function as part of a commercially available paper zipper type coupling or clip on coupling. From a functional point of view, the lips 18 and 20 need to hold the assembl 2 together until they are separated by the user after heating has taken place, as will b described hereinafter.
  • interlocking projections can be provided on the si walls 8 and 12 adjacent the lips 18 and 20 which in this case provide rigidity and a ne appearance to the containers 4 and 6.
  • the side wall 8 and base 10 of the lower container 4 are preferably printed with a mes pattern of conductive material such as metallised ink or paint.
  • the function of the pattern is to prevent transmission of microwaves therethrough and, importantly, not to be heated either generally or in a localised area by the microwaves.
  • Figure 7 illustrat a suitable pattern for the conductive paint.
  • the size of the meshes i.e. those parts which are not painted or printed) are in the range of 0.5mm to 1.5mm preferably 1mm diameter.

  • the mesh or microwave shield may for part of a composite laminated material which is used to form the sidewall 8 and base 10 of the lower container. It has been found that the mesh pattern has the property that it is a microwave shield and, importantly it does not itself become locally heated which can happen with some microwave shielding surfaces.
  • the lower container 4 may be aluminium foil coated by cardboard, a plastic material or other suitable coating on the foil.
  • the base 14 of the upper container 6 is preferably also formed as a microwave shield so that in the container assembly 2, the interior of the lower container 4 is substantially completely shielded when the assembly is subjected to microwave heating. In this way the contents of the lower container 4 are not directly heated by the microwaves.
  • the base of the container 4 may comprise a sheet of material which is essentially the same as that which is used to form the sidewall 8 and base 10 of the lower container, but including a number of perforations or openings therein.
  • the base 14 may comprise a metal mesh or network or a perforated foil or a card backed foil with holes therethrough. The important properties of the material for the base 14 is that it does not transmit microwave radiation therethrough, it is not itself heated by microwave radiation, and it permits flow of flowable material therethrough as will be described below.
  • FIGS 2 and 3 show the lower container 4 having therein respective serves of icecream 24 and chocolate fudge 26 or other sauce, topping or flavouring which is to be heated when served.
  • the icecream 24 is dispensed into the lower container 4 in the usual way and then frozen.
  • An air space 25 is left above the icecream 24 in order to accommodate the fudge 26 as will be described hereinafter.
  • the volume of the air space 25 is preferably about 10% to 20% larger by volume than the volume of the serve 26 of the fudge so that the fudge can comfortably fit within the lower container 6 after it has been melted.
  • the fudge can be heated and poured into the upper container 6 with the top 16 removed.
  • a temporary impervious covering would be required below the base 14 and in contact with the base 14 to prevent the fudge passing through the openings or perforations in the base 14 until it is chilled or frozen.
  • the fudge could be dispensed at a relatively low temperature so that it is too thick to flow through the openings or holes in the base 14.
  • the upper container can be inverted with the top 16 in place so that the fudge can be dispensed into the container through the holes or perforations in the base 14, or alternatively the base 14 is connected to the container after the fudge has been placed in the container.
  • the fudge 26 in the upper container 6 is then chilled or frozen so that the fudge is substantially solid or non-flowable and the lips 18 and 20 are then interconnected so as to form the assembly 2 with the serves 24 and 26 in their respective containers, as illustrated in Figure 4.
  • the products are sold in the frozen state in the assembly to th consumer.
  • the assembly is placed in microwave, such as a domestic microwave oven, and microwaved for a period which commensurate with the size of the product.
  • microwave such as a domestic microwave oven
  • the serve of fudge When the assembly is subjected to microwave radiation, the serve of fudge is heated the microwave radiation sufficiently to flow through the holes or perforations in the ba 14 and into the space 25 in the lower container 4 above the serve 24 of icecream, as shown in Figure 5. The user can then separate the interlocked lips 18 and 20 so that upper container 6 can be discarded.
  • the bottom container can be directly used as th serving cup for the icecream 24 and the warm fudge, as illustrated in Figure 6.
  • the fudge 26 is subjected to a predetermined amount of microwave heating so that it will be heated to a temperature at which it melts or becomes sufficiently flowable to fl through the base into the space 25 and on top of the icecream 24.
  • the icecream 24 will, however, remain at approximately its storage temperature which is preferably in range -10°C to -25 O C.
  • FIGS. 8 to 10 illustrate a modified form of packaging of the invention.
  • the same reference numerals have been used to denote parts which correspond to those of the previous embodiments.
  • the lower part of the sidewall 12 is provided with a projecting rib whereas the upper part of the sidewall 8 is provided with a recess 32 on its inner wall
  • the arrangement is such that by pressing the upper container 6 downwardly into the of the lower container 4, the rib can resiliently engage the recess 32 and form an interlock therewith, as illustrated in Figure 10. This forms a temporary connection between the upper and lower containers 4 and 6. After the consumer has microwave the packaging, the consumer can simply pull the two containers apart so that the upp container 4 is separated from the lower container.
