     V. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS 
     With reference now to the drawings, in particular to  FIGS.  1 - 8    thereof, apparatuses of a multiple component confectionery delivery product, embodying features, principles, and concepts of the multiple component confectionery delivery product invention are described. 
       FIG.  1    illustrates an example of a first embodiment of a multiple component confectionery delivery product  10  according to the invention including a hollow elongated base  12  housing a compressible liquid chamber into which a liquid confectionery  14  can be removably housed. The hollow elongated base  12  is molded out of a thin deformable plastic such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or any other substance known or used in the art. 
     A neck  16  projects from the open end of the compressible liquid chamber  12  opposite to its closed end. The neck  16  has a threaded outer surface  18  which engages with a threaded interior surface  22  of a collared lid  20 . Threaded engagement creates a pressure resistant seal between the external environment and the compressible liquid chamber inside the hollow elongated base  12  such that compression of the compressible liquid chamber forces the liquid confectionery  14  from within the hollow elongated base  12  out through the axial throughway of the nozzle  28 . Alternative to a threaded engagement, the collared lid in certain embodiments may be secured to the neck  16  of the hollow elongated base  12  through any known securing means, such as a snap fit, an interference fit, glue on, or ultrasonic welding. In such an embodiment, the surfaces of the collared lid and the neck would not be threaded, and instead would be equipped with appropriate structures, such as annular projections or recesses to enable a sealing closure. 
     Integrally formed on the exteriorly exposed surface  24  of the collared lid  20  are a solid confectionery mounting  26  and a nozzle  28 . The hard candy mounting  26  comprises a wall onto a portion of which the nozzle  28  is molded. The nozzle  28  has an axial throughway that enables fluid communication with the interior of the compressible liquid chamber when the collared lid  20  is sealably engaged with the neck  16 . 
     The nozzle  28  in certain embodiments is molded to an exterior surface of a wall of the hard candy mounting  26  such that expression of the liquid confectionery  14  from the compressible liquid chamber through the nozzle  28  results in coating of the adjacent exterior surface of a solid confectionery candy  30  that is affixed to the hard candy mounting  26 . In an alternative embodiment, the nozzle  28  is formed on the exteriorly exposed surface  24  independently of the wall of the solid confectionery mounting  26  though still located sufficiently proximately on the exteriorly exposed surface  24  to enable discharge of the liquid confectionery  14  onto an adjacent exterior surface of the solid confectionery  30  upon compression of the compressible liquid chamber. 
     The solid confectionery  30  installed in the solid confectionery mounting  26  can be, for example, a chocolate or a hard candy. The hard candy can be manufactured by any known candy manufacturing method. For example, a low-water content sugar mixture is heated to a sufficient temperature to be formed into a taffy-like consistency, flavoring and coloring is added, and then is run through a roller and cut to make blanks. The blanks are stamped or molded to be formed into the desired product shape. This method of candy-making allows for a virtually unlimited variety in candy shape and configuration. 
     The solid confectionery  30  is engaged with the solid confectionery mounting  26  in such a fit that it does not become dislodged during the consumption of the product. This can be for example with an interference/friction fit. This requires the solid confectionery  30  which engages with the solid confectionery mounting  26  to occupy the entire area of the mounting, such that the side and base surfaces of the solid confectionery are in a frictional interference contact with the interior surface of the walls of the solid confectionery mounting  26 . The solid confectionery  30  in some embodiments of the invention is secured in the mounting  26  while in the cooling/hardening process to enhance bonding to the interior wall surface of the solid confectionery mounting  30  when fully cooled/hardened. 
     The solid confectionery  30  can be of virtually any shape, size, or configuration. The solid confectionery  30  may be molded to portray a likeness to a celebrity, an animal, or a cartoon character, for example. In some embodiments, due to the secure frictional engagement fit in the solid confectionery mounting  26 , the solid confectionery  30  does not require securement to the solid confectionery mounting  26  via pins or nipples. 
     A cover  32  fits over the solid confectionery  30  to protect it from adverse ambient conditions, including environmental contagions. The cover  32  when secured to the collared lid  20  abuts a lip  25  which establishes a perimetric annulus from the lower end of the collared lid  20 . Additionally, the cover  32  features a nozzle plug  34 . When the cover  32  is secured by its base fitting securely over the exterior surface of the collared lid  20 , the nozzle plug  34  obstructs the axial throughway of the nozzle  28  to prevent further release of the liquid confectionery  14  from the compressible liquid chamber in the hollow elongated base  12 . In certain embodiments, the cover  32  is molded to include a nozzle housing  36  dimensioned to fit the height and circumference of the nozzle  28  projecting from the exteriorly exposed surface  24 , and which has integrally formed on its interior surface the nozzle plug  34 . Alternatively, the cover  32  may enclose only the solid confectionery  30 , and a separate nozzle housing may be conformed to fit the nozzle  28  and include on its interior surface the nozzle plug  34 . The engagement of the base of the cover  32  with the collared lid  20  can be an interference fit, a threaded fit, a mating interlockable fit, a bayonet joint, or any other fit known or used in the art. The fit should be sufficiently secure to not be disturbed by compression of the compressible liquid chamber, resulting in dislodgement of the nozzle plug  34  and release of the liquid confectionery  14 . 
     The liquid confectionery  14  stored within the compressible liquid chamber can be any flowable fluid confectionery. For example, it may have the consistency of a honey or syrup, or a thicker, gel-like or paste-like consistency. It may be of a thinner liquid consistency, for example the consistency of water or juice. Embodiments of the invention will be suited to adapt to the specific consistency of the liquid confectionery  14 . This may involve, for example, the inclusion of a one-way pressure actuated valve, such as a Heimlich valve, within the nozzle  28  to reduce air backflow into the liquid chamber. Alternatively, the valve could be inverted to inhibit the unwanted flow of a low-viscosity liquid from unintentionally escaping from the liquid chamber. 
       FIG.  2    illustrates in detail an exploded view of a first embodiment of the multiple component confectionery delivery product  10 . The hollow elongated base  12  has an open end defined by a neck  16  with a threaded outer surface  18 . The solid confectionery  30  in  FIG.  2    has the likeness of a tongue, however the solid confectionery may take any form. The solid confectionery mounting  26  should be conformed to fit the dimensions of the lower portion of the solid confectionery  30 . The solid confectionery  30  is highly customizable and can be adapted in dimension and appearance to coordinate with the external packaging shape and overall appearance or theme of the product. 
       FIG.  3    illustrates a top view of the collared lid  20 , exteriorly exposed surface  24 , lip  25 , solid confectionery mounting  26 , and nozzle  28  according to an embodiment of the invention. The perimeter of the solid confectionery mounting  26  may be indented or fabiform in shape to provide enhanced strength and reliance of the interference fit with the solid confectionery  30 . The nozzle  28  and confectionery mounting  26  may be molded to resemble the appearance of a face, for example a human face to coordinate with the tongue-shaped solid confectionery as shown in  FIG.  2   . In certain embodiments, the exterior of the nozzle  28  may be molded to have the appearance of a nose. 
       FIG.  4    illustrates a sectional side view of an embodiment of the invention. The exterior surface of the collared lid  20  may feature projections  27  and recesses  29  as in the embodiment illustrated in  FIG.  4    to enable a snap fit engagement between the collared lid  20  and the cover  32  which would have projections and recesses coordinated to fit into the projections and recesses of the exterior surface of the collared lid  20 . 
       FIGS.  5 - 8    illustrate various views of a second embodiment of the multiple component confectionery delivery product invention wherein the dimensions of the hollow elongated base  12  of the multiple component confectionery delivery product  10  depict a human body dressed in a long coat. This embodiment has a specific vertical orientation consistent with the configuration of the molded character, with the base  12  oriented below and molded to resemble a body, and the cover  32  and collared lid  20  disposed above the molded base  12 . In further embodiments, the base  12  may be molded in any desired shape or figure. Further, the collared lid  20  and cover  32  portions may be molded in any desired shape or figure, and may be molded to visually and thematically coordinate with the shape of the base  12 . 
       FIG.  5    illustrates a rear view of a second embodiment showing the back of the base  12 . The cover  32  incorporates a nozzle housing  36  such that the cover  32  encloses the entire surface of the exteriorly exposed surface  24 . This embodiment includes an alternative lip  25 A. The lip  25 A is visible projecting perpendicularly from the lower edge of the collared lid  20 , against which the bottom of the cover  32  abuts when the cover  32  is affixed to the collared lid  20 . 
       FIG.  6    illustrates a front view of a second embodiment of the invention. The detachable cover  32  is dimensioned to cover the hard candy  30  and may be dimensioned to accommodate the nozzle in the nozzle housing  36  portion. The nozzle housing  36  has a wider diameter than the top of the cover  32  to provide for the width and height dimensions of the nozzle.  FIG.  7    more clearly depicts the downward radial expansion from the top of the cover  32  to the nozzle housing  36  and to the cover base, which is dimensioned to fit securely via interference fit over the collared lid  20  abutting against the lip  25 A. In an alternative embodiment, the base of the cover  32  may be secured to the exterior of the collared lid  20  via a snap fit engagement, a mating threaded engagement, or a bayonet joint. 
       FIG.  8    illustrates a top view of a second embodiment of the multiple component confectionery delivery product including the cover  32 , and base  12  molded human body shoulders and shoes. In further embodiments, the base  12  may be molded or shaped to depict any shape or human, animal, or cartoon likeness. 
     In view of the foregoing description, without departing from the intent of the invention which employs a customized cover and liquid container that conform to the likeness of a celebrity, such as a musician, athlete, or notable public figure. The compact profile of the invention and customizable nature would lend itself to application as a promotional article at ball games, concerts, etc. Once the confectionery contents of the product are consumed or depleted, the remaining product packaging can be converted to a collectible figurine, the collar, chamber, and cover portions of which can be similarly dimensioned and swapped interchangeably for a mix-and-match collection. Younger consumers can collect and swap figurines, encouraging the purchase of all available models for the most complete collection. 
     In another embodiment, the cover may be tethered to the compressible fluid container or assuming the geometries are appropriate, hingedly affixed to the collared lid. 
     The foregoing embodiments are examples that are not to meant be limiting of the present invention, variations of which are contemplated to be within the description and/or scope thereof given the foregoing. Those skilled in the art should appreciate that various adaptations and modifications of the example and alternative embodiments described above can be devised without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Therefore, it is to be understood that, within the scope of the claims, the invention may be practiced other than as specifically described herein. 
     The utility of the invention is directed to confectionery product production and enjoyment. The invention provides a new unitary confectionary holder and dispenser that both holds and stores a mounted confectionery product and a deformable container containing an edible fluid; where the fluid is dispensed by user control directly onto the confectionary through an axially offset nozzle to allow the user enjoyment of the combined confection.
