Title: Apparatus for preparing edible products

Abstract: An apparatus for preparing edible products having a cylindrical shell of coagulated egg-white enclosing a central core. The apparatus has a plurality of cylindrical moulds moving cyclically in a closed path including stations in which raw materials are supplied and stations in which the finished products are withdrawn from the mould. Each mould is provided with a vertically displaceable bottom plug, which is pushed upwards to permit withdrawal of the finished product. It is subsequently pushed to the bottom of the mould by means of a rod carrying a pad for applying a metered amount of a lubricating agent onto the mould surface before a core member is inserted in the mould and the raw materials are supplied. Means are provided for cleaning the mould wall during the upward movement of the bottom plug.
