Abstract: A dispenser for flowable foodstuffs comprises a rigid shell in which a flexible container for the foodstuff and an inflatable reservoir are received. The container has a connector for attaching a nozzle through which foodstuff is dispensed by inflating the reservoir to apply pressure to displace foodstuff from the container. The nozzle is provided with a valve that is operable to open and close the nozzle and is linked to an air compressor for inflating the reservoir. Inflation pressure is increased as the foodstuff is dispensed up to a maximum pressure less than the burst strength of the container.
