Abstract
A process for the production of filled dough products in which dough and a filling are co-extruding to provide a filled tube of the dough surrounding the filling. The filled tube is then transported on a movable support. While being transported, the filled tube is cut into segments using a plurality of blades which move with the filled tube and which progressively cut into the filled tube with progressive movement of the filled tube so that filling in the portion of the tube to be cut is progressively pushed out of this portion prior to cutting when the blade engages the moving support.
