Abstract

A holder assembly configured to hold a scoop within an inside of a container at a height above the level of a substance. The holder assembly comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion comprises a stem that may be provided with a height according to the geometry of the intended container. The second portion comprises a plurality of stems cooperatively configured and dimensioned to retain the scoop disposed in an inverted position. The segments are connected to the stem at a junction and should be disposed in a spaced apart relation to one another collectively defining a gap for the scoop wall(s). The segments should be movable away from the gap and comprise an inherent tendency to return to their natural position that generates a force that retains the scoop in place.
