Abstract: A process for sequentially filling a container with layers of dry food ingredients in reverse order relative to a desired order of removal for the preparation of a final food product. A first dry food ingredient is deposited into a container. A disk-like divider is positioned atop the deposited food ingredient and depressed such that a flat and level surface is formed atop the food ingredient and the periphery of the divider frictionally adheres to the side wall of the container to seal the food ingredient from a next food ingredient. A next food ingredient is then deposited into the container atop the previously positioned divider. A divider is positioned atop the next food ingredient, and so on until all of the dry ingredients according to a recipe have been introduced into the container. The food ingredients are removed in the reverse order in which they were deposited and selectively combined with wet ingredients according to a recipe for preparation of a final food product.
