ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a confectionary holder which simulates the sound of rain as the holder is vertically positioned. The holder comprises a transparent tube having ends, two sides, and at least two sets of indents directed inward toward the center of the tube and one set of indents per side of the tube. Each indent has a peak, a peak depth, a sloping upper face, a sloping lower face, and between each indent is a space length. The peaks of the indents alternate from one side to the other side along the tube length. The angle of incline of each indent face and the length of the space between each indent are selected to allow rigid items, e.g., candy or gum, when placed in the holder, to create the sound of rain as the confectionary pieces flow downward dropping onto each indent face, sliding off each face, and moving from side to side from one end of the holder to the other end when the holder is vertically positioned. The holder is emptied through a small opening at one end and filled through an opening at the other end. The tube is manufactured by blow molding. A cap with an small opening and a plug are provided. The holder has a dispensing position and a storage position. The holder is blow molded from a rigid plastic that vibrates at a high frequency. The caps are manufactured by injecting molding.
