Abstract
A dispensing package assembly useful for dispensing a predetermined amount of a fluent material comprises a relatively stiff base sheet, a blister overlay appended to the overlay and a dispenser pouch housed within the confines of the overlay and the sheet. The blister overlay having a main cavity and a secondary cavity includes a dispenser depression, preferably in the shape of a thumb indention, which protrudes downward into the main cavity. A shearing depression extending laterally through the secondary cavity defines an area of reduced depth within the secondary cavity. The main body of the pouch is located within the overlay main cavity having a dispensing channel or passageway extending therefrom beneath the shearing depression and into the secondary cavity.
