Abstract

An apparatus for producing croissants with fillings includes a filling-depositing stage for depositing a filling on a croissant dough piece that is being conveyed in a downstream direction, a rolling-up preparation stage positioned downstream of the filling-depositing stage for raising the croissant dough piece at its leading edge and simultaneously turning the leading edge backward to be folded in the upstream direction to thereby cover the filling, and a rolling-up stage positioned downstream of the rolling-up preparation stage for rolling up the croissant dough piece.
