An adjustable food cutter that allows to cut food having a predetermined thickness into equal portions having a user selected cubic volume. The adjustable food cutter comprises a male cutter element and a female cutter element each having a U-shaped configuration oppositely slidably engaged relative to one another so as to form a telescopic cutter body. The adjustable food cutter further comprises a telescopic handle connected between opposed longitudinal end portions of an upper edge of the telescopic cutter body. The telescopic cutter body and the telescopic handle are cooperatively movable between a retracted and an extended position,

This invention has the aim to assist the cutting of a cake, pizza or other similar foods through a battery-powered laser device, which shows the cutting path to get equal portions of a cake, pizza or similar foods; the laser light beam displays a cutting line through which a knife, or other tool pass to cut a equal number of portions according to a user's need.

Method for producing wafer half-shells including the operations of: providing a wafer including a plurality of half-shells connected to each other by an interconnecting wall, where the interconnecting wall is connected to each half-shell by an annular region surrounding the half-shell having a thickness smaller than the thickness of the interconnecting wall, and separating the half-shells from the interconnecting wall along a cutting profile corresponding to the half-shell contour at the annular region with a reduced thickness,
wherein, in the separation operation the interconnecting wall is supported by a plastic material support, and the separation operation is carried out by a cutting member having a serrated cutting profile.

An automated pizza making system, comprising: a computer-based controller; an ordering system; automated food handling devices; racks; toppings stations; ovens; cutting stations, and packaging stations. Conveyors and/or automated food handling devices move the pizzas between the racks, the topping stations, the ovens, the cutting stations, and the packaging stations, such that made to order pizzas are created without being handled by human hands. The toppings stations may comprise sauce stations, cheese stations, and meat/veggie topping stations. The ordering system may be configured to allow a plurality of customer orders and the computer-based controller is configured to process the orders, such that the automated pizza ordering system produces made to order pizzas that are picked up or delivered.

A device and method for shaping baked goods that includes a container and a shaping rack engaging a semi-solid consumable substance within the container to enable creative and decorative shaping and decoration of the semi-solid consumable substance. The shaping rack comprises a perimeter frame section that encloses a framed shaping section. The framed shaping section forms multiple framed sub-sections having geometric shapes. The shaping rack is superimposed over the semi-solid consumable substance. The shaping rack translates, with a sharp edge, toward a bottom surface of the semi-solid consumable substance. In translation, the shaping rack penetrates the semi-solid consumable substance to a determined depth. This allows formation of consumable substance units corresponding in shape, respectively, to the geometric shapes of the framed sub-sections. Blocks on opposite ends of the semi-solid consumable substance restrict penetration by the shaping rack past a predetermined depth.

A sandwiching device for creating pocket sandwich-type food, the sandwiching device having a stand, a lever mechanism attached to the stand, a punch attached to the lever mechanism, a die attached to the stand and positioned below the punch, and a sealer seated within the die. The lever mechanism is used to lower the punch and press the punch against the die and the sealer. When foodstuff is placed on the die, pressing the punch against the die and the sealer simultaneously cuts the crust off the foodstuff while sealing the edges of the foodstuff to create a pocket sandwich. To facilitate the sealing, the perimeter edge of the sealer may have a scalloped edge.
