Viscous food dispensing system

A cassette for supplying a viscous food product, comprising:

• a cassette which is reusable and attachable with a pump device;
• a container detachably connected with the cassette, the container containing a viscous food product, the container including an outlet which is at a bottom of the container configured to couple with the pump device via a friction-fit connector;
• and
• a dispensing device comprising a roller slideably attached to the cassette at each end of the roller and slideably coupled to an exterior of the container to apply pressure against the container against a door of the cassette, wherein as the dispensing device is initially coupled to a top of the container and slides towards the outlet as the viscous food product is expelled,
• wherein the dispensing device additionally includes a level indicator coupled with the roller that protrudes through at least one aperture of the cassette when a door of the cassette is closed to provide a level indication of the viscous food product within the container.

A method of dispensing a viscous food, comprising:

• raising a roller of a food dispensing system to an upper position of a frame;
• installing a container containing a viscous food product;
• inserting a friction-fit connector of an inlet tube of a pump device of the food dispensing system into an outlet of the container;
• and
• closing a door connected with the frame to position the container between the roller and the door to apply pressure on the container and dispense the viscous food product through the inlet tube.
