Abstract
Dispensing support for use with an associated brick-type package, the brick-type package presenting a parallelepiped shape for its bottom and side panels and a gable top panel with a pour spout attached thereto. The dispensing support comprises a parallelepiped sleeve, the sleeve being divided in two parts attached together by a hinge, so that the sleeve can be opened and the associated brick-type package can be inserted inside. The dispensing support presents an upwardly projecting spout extending from the top wall of the parallelepiped sleeve, the spout being off-center on the top wall of the sleeve so as to engage the pour spout at the gable top panel of the brick-type package when the package is introduced in the dispensing support with its gable top compressed.
