A receptacle for receiving and sequentially dispensing individual shaped bodies from a stack of like bodies. The receptacle has a pivotal cover at the dispensing end thereof and a cap mounted on said cover. The cap has a skirt extending around the pivotal cover. This skirt has a first portion engaging the cover, a second portion adapted to engage the housing of the receptacle when the cover is pivoted toward an open position and a pair of elastically deformable portions intermediate said first and second portions. The elastically deformable portions constitute a spring for biasing the pivoted cover into its closed position. The cover also has a finger portion for pushing the uppermost shaped body and dispensing it from the receptacle when the cover is pivoted against the spring bias.
