Abstract
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.
