Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is a system for dispensing a frozen confection (30), the system comprising a cartridge (1) and a device (20). The cartridge (1) comprises a tubular body (2) extending from an open end to a dispensing end, a piston (5) slidable within the tubular body (2), an end piece (3) formed from cardboard and closing the dispensing end of the tubular body (2) and comprising a dispensing aperture (4), and frozen confection (30) contained within the tubular body between the piston (5) and the end piece (3). The device (20) comprises a seat (10) for locating the cartridge (1) in or on the device (20); and a plunger (22) positioned for entering the cartridge (1) through the open end of the tubular body (2) with the cartridge (1) located in the seat (10), and for engaging with the piston (5) and moving the piston (5) towards the end piece (3) thereby creating a dispensing force to urge the frozen confection (30) out of the dispensing aperture (4). The seat (10) of the device (20) comprises an annular plate (11) that supports the end piece (3) of the cartridge (1) against the dispensing force. |
