Abstract

A dispensing cup-box closure apparatus provides a pair of rectangular planar members joining at a common edge, each of the members having uniform widths corresponding to the width of the common edge. The planar members form an angle with respect to each other of substantially 90.degree.. A pair of correspondingly sized side webb members are provided, each having at least three edges and each side webb member being integrally connected respectively along at least two of the edges to the pair of planar members. The integral connection of the correspondingly sized side webb members and the planar rectangular members provide a container having an inner container space and an opening for receiving a dispensed product into the inner container space. The integral container provides a diagonally cut cube which conveniently covers and seals the dispensing flap opening of conventional rectangular cardboard boxes in addition to the container function.
