The leading edge (22) of a sheet of dough product (18) impacts an impacting feature (46) and causes the leading edge (22) to roll over onto itself thereby initiating a roll (10). Engagement enhancement (26) is utilized to increase the ability of the sheet of dough product to resist sliding upon impacting the impacting feature (46). This provides a tighter rolled dough product (10) having a consistent size and shape. Thus, in accordance with one specific aspect of the present invention, rolled dough products for subsequent packaging into containers may be formed that have a repeatable size and shape. By providing rolled dough products having a repeatable size and shape a more efficient and economical process results. This is because the size and shape of the rolled dough product is controlled with respect to the size of the container.
