Method for producing wafer half-shells including the operations of: providing a wafer including a plurality of half-shells connected to each other by an interconnecting wall, where the interconnecting wall is connected to each half-shell by an annular region surrounding the half-shell having a thickness smaller than the thickness of the interconnecting wall, and separating the half-shells from the interconnecting wall along a cutting profile corresponding to the half-shell contour at the annular region with a reduced thickness,
wherein, in the separation operation the interconnecting wall is supported by a plastic material support, and the separation operation is carried out by a cutting member having a serrated cutting profile.

This disclosure relates to edible products and methods of making such compositions. The edible products disclosed herein comprise a first composition and a second composition in which the first composition surrounds a second composition. The second composition can be ice cream, frozen yogurt, or other desserts. The edible products disclosed herein allow for consumption of second composition without the mess associated with such dessert-like product.

An integrated host, and method for manufacture, that provides an edible food product integrating a desiccated liquid. The integrated host allows a church attendee to partake in communion of both bread and wine from a single-use packaged product that avoids spillage of wine or other liquids. The integrated host helps to prevent the transmission of germs or other disease vectors and allows for communion by viaticum for those who are unable to attend church services in person.
