A snack dispenser has a series of tiers (110) stacked to resemble a wedding cake (108). Each tier (110) has a trough (10) divided into slots (156, 158). A snack may be placed into each slot (156, 158). The carousel (16) is covered with a back shell (20) and a transparent front shell (22). By inserting a proper amount of money and aligning the carousel (16) so that the desired snack is beneath a door (24, 26, 28), the door (24, 26, 28) may be opened and the customer may withdraw the snack from that slot (156, 158). The opening of a door (24, 26, 28) blocks the rotation of the carousel (16) and blocks the opening of the remaining doors (24, 26, 28).
