Abstract

A cone-shaped edible container according to the present invention comprises: an edible outer layer; an edible inner layer; a first edible adhesive layer disposed between the outer layer and the inner layer to bond the outer layer and the inner layer together; and a second adhesive layer for maintaining the outer layer and the inner layer to be in the shape of a cone, wherein at least some regions of the edible container have a first cross-section structure in which the inner layer, the first adhesive layer, and the outer layer are sequentially laminated in a direction from the inside toward the outside, and have a second cross-section structure in which the inner layer, the first adhesive layer, the outer layer, the second adhesive layer, the inner layer, the first adhesive layer, and the outer layer are sequentially laminated in the direction from the inside toward the outside.

Claims15

Dependent claims

A conical edible container comprising:

an outer shell which is edible;
an inner shell which is edible;
an edible first adhesive layer provided between the outer shell and the inner shell, and configured to bond the outer shell and the inner shell;
and
an edible second adhesive layer configured to maintain the outer shell and the inner shell in a conical shape,
wherein at least a partial area of the conical edible container has a first sectional structure, in which the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, and the outer shell are sequentially stacked in a direction that faces an outer side from an inner side, and a second sectional structure, in which the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, the outer shell, the edible second adhesive layer, the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, and the outer shell are sequentially stacked, and a third sectional structure, in which the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, the outer shell, the edible second adhesive layer, and the outer shell are sequentially stacked, and
wherein the outer shell is larger than the inner shell so that the entire inner shell is superimposed on the outer shell, and
wherein the first sectional structure, the second sectional structure, and the third sectional structure are sequentially arranged along a circumferential direction of the conical edible container, and
wherein the edible second adhesive layer is positioned between the outer shell and the inner shell to reinforce bonding therebetween in the second sectional structure, and the edible second adhesive layer is positioned between overlapping portions of the outer shell to bond the outer shell to itself in the third sectional structure, and
wherein the edible second adhesive layer is configured to maintain the conical shape by counteracting an elasticity of the inner shell, the elasticity of the inner shell being greater than an elasticity of the outer shell.

7 more elements

A method for manufacturing a conical edible container, the method comprising:

(a) preparing the outer shell which is edible and an inner shell which is edible;
(b) bonding the outer shell and the inner shell using an edible first adhesive layer provided between the outer shell and the inner shell;
(c) forming a conical shape by winding the outer shell and the inner shell in a state, in which the outer shell and the inner shell are bonded to each other, by an edible second adhesive layer such that the conical shape is not released, and
wherein at least a partial area of the conical edible container has a first sectional structure, in which the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, and the outer shell are sequentially stacked in a direction that faces an outer side from an inner side, and a second sectional structure, in which the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, the outer shell, the edible second adhesive layer, the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, and the outer shell are sequentially stacked, and a third sectional structure, in which the inner shell, the edible first adhesive layer, the outer shell, the edible second adhesive layer, and the outer shell are sequentially stacked, and
wherein the outer shell is larger than the inner shell so that the entire inner shell is superimposed on the outer shell, and
wherein the first sectional structure, the second sectional structure, and the third sectional structure are sequentially arranged along a circumferential direction of the conical edible container, and
wherein the edible second adhesive layer is positioned between the outer shell and the inner shell to reinforce bonding therebetween in the second sectional structure, and the edible second adhesive layer is positioned between overlapping portions of the outer shell to bond the outer shell to itself in the third sectional structure, and
wherein the edible second adhesive layer is configured to maintain the conical shape by counteracting an elasticity of the inner shell, the elasticity of the inner shell being greater than an elasticity of the outer shell;
and
(d) baking the conical shape.
