There is provided a combustible product including a combustible substance. The combustible product includes an enclosure comprising a sheet of combustible material which folds about and encloses the combustible substance so as to form the enclosure. The enclosure includes a closed end portion, a single twisted end portion, and an enlarged portion extending between the end portions thereof. The closed end portion of the enclosure consists of a continuous, non-folded portion of said sheet of combustible material. The twisted end portion of the enclosure functions as a wick or handle.

A food storage bag may include a flexible substrate defining first and second opposing sidewalls, a closed bottom and an open top, and first and second wires extending along the first and second sidewalls of the flexible substrate. The first and second wires may each have a shape defining a series of peaks and troughs such that the opposing peaks and troughs may be twisted together to close the flexible substrate at different lengths along the first and second sidewalls.

One or more lasers (80, 100) form one or more crease lines (140, 150, 151) in a flexible wrapping material (60). The flexible wrapping material is then folded about the one or more crease lines when encapsulating an item to be wrapped within the flexible wrapping material. The flexible wrapping material may have poor dead-fold characteristics and can comprise a flow-wrapping material. A single laser or multiple lasers can serve to form the one or more crease lines. The crease lines can be formed on a same side of the flexible wrapping material or on both sides thereof. By one approach, folding the flexible wrapping material about the one or more crease lines forms, at least in part, a form-factor conformal pocket to accommodate the aforementioned item. By another approach, folding the flexible wrapping material about the one or more crease lines forms, at least in part, a gusset.
