The force mechanism takes the form of either an annular spring or O-ring located around the socket and hook or a linear spring attached to the hook in a lever-type manner. The manufacturing system includes a coating area for coating a wafer cone with a moisture- resistant layer, a filling area having a filler for inserting a semi-frozen confection into the wafer cone, a cooling area for accepting the wafer cone with the semi-frozen confection and including a hardening tunnel for freezing the wafer cone and the semi-frozen confection, and a dipping area including more than one pin-less socket apparatus for accepting the wafer cone and moving the wafer cone through a dipping bin. Within the system, the coating, filling, cooling, and dipping areas may be on the same or separate assembly loops including the socket apparatus within one or more of such assembly loops.
