The applicator includes a first elongated member having a first section for manual holding of the elongated member and a second section for holding the product.

The upstanding wall terminates in a relatively sharp edge with the sharp edge causing the product when in a melted state during manufacture to form a mound of the product extending above the upstanding wall.
