APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SPHERICAL DOUGH PRODUCTS

摘要

A spherical body comprising a dough crust and a filling is formed by cutting a cylindrical body consisting of a dough crust (l7) and filling (l9). The cylindrical body is cut by a cutter member comprising an assembly of sliding members l which slide against each other to close an opening l4 through which the cylindrical body passes. By means of this arrangement the area of the cutting member in contact with the cylindrical body is gradually reduced as the opening is closed.
