This invention relates to a spring-loaded mechanism adapted to cut and fold a pastry blanket having an edible filling thereon to produce danish pastry having a filling thereon. The mechanism consists of three parts, preferably made of stainless steel and consists of a cage having preferably more than one cell; a pastry folding mechanism having seperable spring-loaded flaps; and a lifter disposed over and partly through the folder mechanism for lifting the prepared folded-over danish pastry for removal. The cage is removably press fitted upon a slat of a conveyor chain consisting of a plurality of said slats, each having a cage thereon. The conveyor slats are not removable from the conveyor and are not a part of this invention. Each folder mechanism has a centrally disposed platform to which is fixed, preferably, two depending legs, which are disposed in frictional seizure relationship to co-acting apertures disposed in said slat to permit removal of the folder mechanism from the slat for cleaning. The lifter also is provided with a platform and two depending legs and is disposed over the folder mechanism platform and through apertures therein and thence into apertures in said slat for removal frictional seizure thereto.
