POWDER CONTAINER WITH FIRST AND SECOND HINGED CLOSURES

Abstract:

A package (5) is disclosed for holding a powdered material. The package (5) comprises a container (10) and a scoop (50). The container (10) comprises a main body (20), a first hinged closure (30), and a second hinged closure (40). The main body (20) may optionally comprise a collar (325). The first hinged closure (30) is configured to fully cover and resealably close the main body (20) of the container (10) when the container (10) is not in use. The first hinged closure (30) may comprise a pocket (33) to receive the bowl (52) of the scoop (50). Alternatively, the second hinged closure (40) may comprise a scoop receiving structure (344) to secure a scoop (50). The second hinged closure (40) covers at least a portion of the first hinged closure (30) when the container (10) is not in use, thereby keeping the scoop (50) clean between uses.
