Abstract

A baking mold (10) for sandwich rolls having an interior sandwich component cavity, includes a retaining member (11) and a form member (12). The retaining member (11) is a generally hollow cylinder having a circumferential side wall (15). The form member (12) includes a cylindrical slug (18), a spacer rail (19) and a support portion (20). The support portion (20) includes a U-shaped handle (30) and a semi-cylindrical support strap (31). The form member (12) is fitted into the retaining member (11) such that the spacer rail (19) engages the interior of the circumferential side wall (15) and the semi-cylindrical support strap (31) engages the exterior of the circumferential side wall (15) so as to positively position the form member (12) in a fixed spatial relationship within the retaining member (11). The retaining member (11) is partially filled with dough which is allowed to rise prior to assembly. Thus, the mold (10) serves to produce a sandwich roll having an enclosed cylindrical sandwich component cavity.
