Abstract

A bag (1) for use in the shaping of liquid food products or stimulants consists of two plastics foils (2, 3), which are welded together in such an area of the two foils as will provide a plurality of interconnected mould cavities (4) with a common inlet (5). In the mould cavities (4) there are placed sticks (6) which are held in position by the positioning in a channel (8) having a length and cross-section corresponding to the holding part (7) of the stick (6). When the bag is filled with liquid ice cream or a similar material, the mould cavities (4) are distended three-dimensionally, and when the length of the sticks (6) is suitably dimensioned with respect to the length of the mould cavities (4), the sticks will be firmly "fixed" within the mould cavities (4). The sticks (6) are therefore placed in the middle of the ice lollies formed after freezing.
