A co-forming apparatus for molding dual-ingredient food patties in a molding machine of the kind having a mold plate disposed intermediate two mold covers and driven cyclically between a fill position and a discharge position; first and second food ingredients are pumped through first and second fill passages, in one or both mold covers, into separate parts of a mold cavity in the mold plate when that plate is in its fill position. A tubular separator piston in the second fill passage moves into and out of the mold cavity, in synchronism with the cyclic mold plate movement, to maintain separation between the first and second parts of the mold cavity during filling.
