SYSTEM FOR APPLYING PATTERNED CRUST SEGMENTS TO DOUGH

摘要

A device and method to create additional segments of crust and topping zones on baked products such as pizza. The device is a base with a top surface and a bottom surface opposing the top surface and at least one pattern that protrudes from the surface of the base. Before cooking the baked product, the pattern is embossed into uncooked dough. Additional dough may be applied along the pattern on the flattened uncooked dough along the embossed pattern. The newly created crust results in additional segments of crust and topping zones throughout the pizza. Within the new topping zones, singular or combinations of toppings can be applied. Once baked, the product may be sliced along the crust segments, with each individual slice having toppings and a crust section.
