Abstract

See full text

A container and dispensing method for mixing and dispensing a set of ingredients. The container includes a tube having a dispensing end and a filling end, the filling end being sealed by a first plunger. The container includes a second plunger between the dispensing end and the first plunger that separate the interior into a first cavity and a second cavity, each cavity holding at least one ingredient. The second plunger includes a breakable membrane portion. A mixing apparatus is inserted through the dispensing end, pierces the membrane portion, and urges the second plunger towards the first plunger, causing the ingredients between the plungers to flow through the pierced membrane portion and combine. The mixing apparatus feature expandable flanges, and may be driven with a rotating force to mix the combined ingredients within the tube. The first plunger is then used to dispense the mixture through the dispensing end.
