A food baking apparatus includes a compressible die and a mechanical stop for controlling a die spacing of the compressible die. The mechanical stop includes a supporting system and a mounting element mounted onto the supporting system. The mounting element includes at least one protrusion having a particular amount of protrusion from the mounting element, which amount of protrusion may be adjustable for any single protrusion. By translation or rotation of the supporting system and/or the mounting element during operation of the apparatus, a protrusion is selected. The protrusions mechanically stop further compression of the dies during an operation of the food baking apparatus. Thus, the selection determines the die spacing applicable for the baking process, based on the amount of protrusion of the selected protrusion.

The present disclosure describes a bun having a pair of cavities formed therein. The cavities include inner walls which are browned. The cavities form segregated areas which are suitable for receiving separate fillings for making a sandwich. The bun has an insulating wall separating adjacent cavities. The insulating wall may be thicker than the other walls in the bun or may further contain cavities or through-holes to further reduce thermal transfer between any fillings with different temperatures that may be located in the cavities. The browned inner walls in each of the cavities help prevent the bun from getting soggy.

A shape generating cupcake pan assembly for creating baked goods having a variety of shapes includes a tray and a plurality of molds. A plurality of holes is positioned in the tray. Each mold comprises a disc in which a recess is positioned. Each recess has a respective shape so that the plurality of molds comprises recesses having a variety of shapes. A lip, which extends radially from the disc, is complementary to a perimeter of a respective hole. The mold is removably engageable to the tray upon insertion into the respective hole. Upon addition of a baking mixture to the recess and baking, a baked good shaped complementarily to the recess is obtained.
