Pattern forming apparatus and methods for grouping food products, such as loaves of bread, into any one of a plurality of different patterns wherein an approach conveyor, for successively conveying products in a longitudinal path, communicates with a reorienting member for receiving a first group of products from the approach conveyor and disposing them in end-for-end reversed position relative to incoming products on the approach conveyor. Pusher mechanism is provided for selectively, transversely pushing one or more additional products on the approach conveyor into abutting relation with the reoriented products to join with them in a common plane product.
