Disclosed is a cooking state and completion indicator of instant foods such as instant noodles, which indicates a cooking state of the instant foods to allow consumers to easily identify the cooking state quickly, thereby allowing the consumers to ingest the cooked instant foods and to approximate a cooking completion time of the instant foods to prevent the consumers from wasting time while waiting for the instant foods to be cooked. The cooking state and completion indicator is characterized in that pattern layers with various heights are installed in a cover (20) of a disposable vessel for containing the instant foods, a temperature-sensitive material is packed in the pattern layers, and a message member (40) is positioned under the pattern layers. When the cover of the disposable vessel is closed after hot water is placed into the disposable vessel, the pattern layers become transparent in such as way that a pattern layer with a lowest height becomes firstly transpartent and a pattern layer with a highest height becomes transparent last of all, thereby letters or drawings marked on the message member positioned under the pattern layers are gradually revealed through the transparent pattern layers to allow the consumers to easily confirm the cooking state of the instant foods. When the letters or drawings on the message member (40) are completely revealed because the pattern layers become completely transparent, a cooking of the instant foods is completed. |
