Abstract

A method for forming a diffuse visual pattern of two or more product components in a container. The method includes providing a filler/mixer having a mixing chamber with up to about 10 mixing elements. A container is positioned after the mixing chamber on a container support that is capable of rotating the container. The components are fed into the mixing chamber to form a mixture. The mixture is fed into the container while it is rotated and concurrently separated from the mixing chamber.
