The present invention relates to the production of cookies which exhibit a cookie crumb-like structure and structural integrity using a cooker extruder to mix and heat ingredients comprising flour and oil to promote browning and flavor development. The heat treated mass produced in the cooker extruder is admixed with ingredients comprising water in a post extrusion mixer. The dough-like mixture produced in the post extrusion mixer is leavened and further browned using post-extrusion baking, such as microwave, dielectric radio frequency, infrared, conductive, or convection baking, frying, or a combination thereof. The shorting or fat content of the dough-like mixture may be from about 12% by weight to about 40% by weight, preferably from about 20% by weight to about 30% by weight, based upon the weight of the dough-like mixture. Separation of oil from the remaining mass and extruder surging and starch gelatinization are avoided preferably by admixing water into heat-treated ingredients comprising flour and oil after and during substantial cooling of the heat-treated ingredients. The extruder and post extrusion mixer are operated at low pressures, generally less than about 20 bars absolute, preferably less than about 10 bars absolute. The relative amount of solid, crystalline or granulated sugar, such as sucrose, subjected to the heat treatment may be used to control the tenderness and crunchiness of the final product.

A turner arm assembly for a doughnut fryer has a pivot axle on one end that is provided with a hardened ball mounted in a cylindrical hardened bearing of the sidewall of a conveyor assembly. In an alternative form a straight diameter pivot axle is provided in a crowned internal diameter of the hardened bearing. The opposite end of the turner arm assembly is drivingly connected to a drive axle fixed to a cam. A removable stop prevents the pivot axle from moving outwardly of the sidewall of the conveyor assembly. The turner arm assembly is removed by moving the stop, shifting the turner arm axially until the turner arm is free of the drive axle, then sliding the turner arm back inwardly of the sidewall of the conveyor assembly while the pivot axle connection with the sidewall of the conveyor assembly gives complete free movement of upward pivotal movement of the turner arm to clear the opposite end of the turner arm over the sidewall for removal.

A method and apparatus for making bread wherein the duration of kneading is set at a predetermined value, and the kneading stage is divided into (1) an early kneading stage wherein either cool or warm air is blown onto the dough at the start of kneading to bring the dough temperature, within a short time period, close to the optimum kneading temperature and (2) a later kneading stage wherein cool air and warm air are blown onto the dough in an alternating mode in order to maintain the dough temperature close to the optimum kneading temperature.

In a process of making a rolled wafer cone from a baked flat wafer blank made from a sugar-containing wafer dough, the baked wafer blank is rolled to form a wafer cone in a winding mold while the wafer blank is still in a soft, deformable state after the baking operation. Thereafter the rolled wafer cone is permitted to harden. In order to ensure the production of wafer cones having consistently exactly the same shape, it is proposed that the wafer cone which is unrestrained at least in part is shortened in the winding mold to a predetermined length while the wafer cone is adapted to be plastically deformed. For this purpose the rolled wafer cone disposed in the winding mold is subjected to a plastic deformation only at one end or only at both ends. The process can be carried out by means of winding devices, which are mounted on a rotary frame and each of which comprises a conical winding core, which is secured to a winding shaft that is displaceable relative to the rotary frame to move the conical winding into and out of the winding mold. In that apparatus each winding device is provided with at least one sizing device, which is associated with the rim of the wafer cone and comprises at least one pressure-applying finger, which is adapted to be introduced between the winding mold and the winding core.

A device operatively connected to a machine for the production of cone-shaped wafers and comprising: (1) a chain or belt conveyer for moving cone-shaped receptacles, which can be of an insert type; (2) a cream batcher and a presser for the wafers. The product obtained is an ice-cream cone constituted of a pair of equally tapered cone-shaped wafers and of a layer of cream interposed between the two wafers, one being fitted into the other.

An extended shelf-like baking product which is rich in proteins, can be firmly cut and does not form crumbs, is produced from a mixture of more than 30% and up to 70%, preferably 60% to 70% by weight of vital wheat proteins with an equilibrium moisture of 8% to 13% together with an amount of 100% cereal starch necessary to make up 100%.

Apparatus for splitting, water-spraying and seeding the upper surfaces of bakery products preliminary to baking them is mounted directly in front of the oven. It includes a track, a carriage, and a carriage drive for moving the carriage across the bakery products. Mounted on the carriage are cutters, a spray, and a seeder arranged, respectively, for splitting, spraying, and seeding the upper surfaces of the bakery products. These units work during a continuous passage of the carriage across the oven door. The processed products then may be introduced immediately into the oven for baking.

THE INVENTION IS A FORTUNE COOKIE MAKING MACHINE. THE BATTER IS COOKED IN COOKING UNITS THAT ARE CARRIED THROUGH AN OVEN ON A CONVEYOR. THE COOKED BATTER UNITS ARE EJECTED FROM THE COOKING UNIT AND CONVEYED TO A UNIT WHICH PLACES A FORTUNE COOKIE SLIP ON THEM AND THEN TO A FOLDING UNIT WHICH FOLDS THE FORTUNE COOKIE ABOUT THE FORTUNE COOKIE SLIP. THE FOLDED FORTUNE COOKIE IS REMOVED FROM THE FOLDING UNIT BY A TAKE-AWAY UNIT WHICH PLACES IT ON A FINAL CONVEYOR.
