A container for holding comestible substances, comprising an outer container having a first uppermost peripheral edge at an upper end thereof and an inner container having a second uppermost peripheral edge at an upper end thereof, wherein the first uppermost peripheral edge is located proximate the second uppermost peripheral edge, wherein the inner container can rotate within and with respect to the outer container, wherein the inner container defines an inner container sidewall opening and the outer container defines a complementary outer container sidewall opening therethrough, wherein the inner container defines a bottommost wall coupled to the inner container sidewall, wherein the inner container defines a continuous inner compartment therein along its height from the bottommost wall to the second uppermost peripheral edge, the height of the inner compartment being greater than its width, and further wherein relative rotation of the outer container with respect to the inner container causes an overlap of the inner container sidewall opening and the outer container sidewall opening to selectively define an adjustable access opening through the sidewall of the outer container and inner container to permit a user to extract a comestible article from within the inner container through the adjustable access opening, wherein the inner container sidewall opening and the outer container sidewall opening each have a stepped peripheral edge.
