Edible Cone Production Assembly
An edible cone production assembly for streamlined production of edible cones includes a conveyor, which comprises a pair of belts. A platform is engaged to and extends between the belts. A sheet, which is resiliently flexible, is engaged to the platform. A hopper, which is engaged to the conveyor, contains a batter, and portions the batter onto the sheet. A heating unit substantially encompasses a section of the conveyor between the first end and a second end of the conveyor. A guide is engaged to the conveyor within the heating unit and is positioned to selectively engage a plurality of forming units engaged to the platform as it traverses the heating unit to mold the batter into a cone as the heating unit bakes the batter. The cone drops from the platform as the platform rounds an end of the conveyor. The platform is one of a plurality of platforms.

System and methods for treatment of wounds with negative pressure and peroxy pyruvic acid
In one example embodiment, a system for treating a tissue site is disclosed comprising a dressing adapted to contact the tissue site and provide a fluid seal between a therapeutic environment and a local external environment, and a solution source fluidly coupled to the dressing and adapted to deliver an antimicrobial solution comprising a peroxy α-keto carboxylic acid, such as peroxy pyruvic acid, to the tissue interface. The system may further comprise a negative-pressure source fluidly coupled to the dressing and adapted to provide negative pressure to the therapeutic environment after delivery of the antimicrobial fluid to the therapeutic environment. In another example embodiment, a method for treating a tissue site is disclosed comprising positioning a tissue interface to contact the tissue site, covering the tissue interface and the tissue site with a drape to provide a fluid seal between the therapeutic environment and the local external environment, and delivering an antimicrobial solution comprising peroxy α-keto carboxylic acid to the therapeutic environment before providing negative pressure to the therapeutic environment.

Insulated pocket bun
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.

Soft cake and method of manufacture thereof
The present invention relates to a method for the production of a soft cake having at least a molded face and at least a non-molded face, the molded face having at least one molded three-dimensional pattern, the method comprising the steps of: a) pouring a cake batter suitable for forming a soft cake into a pan, wherein the cake batter has a viscosity of between 500 and 1 Pa.Math.s; b) baking said soft cake batter in said pan to form a soft cake; and c) removing the soft cake from the pan, wherein the pan has a molded inner surface for receiving the cake batter and which provides the three dimensional molding pattern of the soft cake, and wherein the molded inner surface of the pan has an arithmetical mean degree of roughness (Ra) of from 0.12 m to 0.22 m, wherein the molded three-dimensional pattern of the soft cake is complementary to the molded inner surface of the pan and has a molded groove which is in recess relative to said molded face and/or a molded ridge which protrudes relative to said molded face, said molded groove and/or molded ridge having a minimum width of less than 4 mm measured across the groove or ridge at the maximum depth or height respectively.

Device for discharging baked goods
Devices for discharging bakery goods, to be combined with an upstream continuous baking oven, are described. The device has transfer means for transferring bakery goods from a storage unit to discharging means, wherein the discharging means direct the bakery goods to a discharging compartment. The discharging means include a conveying installation and a dispensing installation, wherein the dispensing installation is suppliable by the conveying installation with bakery goods.
Device and method for shaping baked goods
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.
