Germinating cereal (A) in a hopper (9) is dispensed by a slider (14) reciprocated by a pinion (13) and rack (12) and dispensed into cavities defined by a downwardly displaced inner part (19) of a lower mould assembly (11) also including an outer part (18). The slider is retracted for recharging cavities (14a) therein with further cereal (A) and to permit downwardly protruding parts (10a) of an upper mould part (10) to be lowered towards the lower mould assembly thus pressing the cereal therein. Mould parts are displaced by upper and lower mould cylinders (26, 27) and heated by heaters (17, 22). As the further cereal is delivered to the mould parts (10, 11) a pushing part (15) of the slider (14) displaces formed cereal cakes down a chute (28) into a cake receiving region of the device. The device is mounted on wheels and suitable for use in department stores, outdoor venues etc. <IMAGE> |
