Abstract
Abstract A process for producing hollow pastries wherein a strip of pastry dough is wound off a rotary drum on a winding spindle disposed relative to the drum to produce a hollow pastry body by spirally overlapping the pastry strip on the spindle. A coating is applied on the inside of the pastry strip from a dispending nozzle before the strip is wound on the spindle to protect the pastry body from the wet filling introduced subsequently into the hollow pastry body and to bond the overlapping turns of the pastry body to each other.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim
117 words
In a process for producing hollow filled pastries by the steps of providing a soft baked pastry strip, winding said pastry strip in an overlapping spiral about a spindle thereby providing said strip with a shape having a hollow interior, and filling said pastry with a moist filling, the improvement comprising the step of: insulating the interior of said pastry strip from softening and dissolving effects of said filling by applying an insulating coating to said pastry strip prior to the step of winding said strip, so as to produce an insulating layer on said interior of said wound pastry strip; whereby said insulating coating remains impervious and the soft filling cannot penetrate into the baked pastry.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
117 words
In a process for producing hollow filled pastries by the steps of providing a soft baked pastry strip, winding said pastry strip in an overlapping spiral about a spindle thereby providing said strip with a shape having a hollow interior, and filling said pastry with a moist filling, the improvement comprising the step of: insulating the interior of said pastry strip from softening and dissolving effects of said filling by applying an insulating coating to said pastry strip prior to the step of winding said strip, so as to produce an insulating layer on said interior of said wound pastry strip; whereby said insulating coating remains impervious and the soft filling cannot penetrate into the baked pastry.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
The process defined in claim 1 wherein said coating step comprises the step of pouring a coating substance on said pastry strip.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
The process defined in claim 1 wherein said insulating step comprises the step of spraying said coating material on said pastry strip.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
The process defined in claim 1 wherein said insulating step comprises the step of sprinkling said coating material on said pastry strip.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
40 words
The process defined in claim 1 wherein said insulating step includes coating said pastry strip substantially along its entire width, whereby the coating material present on overlapping sections of said strip further provides a bonding action between the overlapping layers.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
The process defined in claim 1 further comprising the step of limiting the width of said coating material subsequent to the step of applying said coating material to said pastry strip.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
31 words
The process defined in claim 1 further comprising the step of limiting the thickness of said coating material subsequent to the step of applying said coating material to said pastry strip.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
27 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the coating substance is applied only on an area of width of the pastry strip located within the overlapping zone.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
98 words
A process for producing hollow pastries comprising the steps of: a. running a strip of baked pastry material off a baking drum; b. conducting said strip around a deflection roller; c. applying an insulating coating substance to one side of said strip; and d. applying said strip to a winding spindle for forming said strip into a hollow shape wherein said strip is applied to said spindle with said insulating substance facing said spindle; e. introducing a moist filling into said hollow shape; whereby said insulating coating remains impervious and the moist filling cannot penetrate the baked pastry.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
98 words
A process for producing hollow pastries comprising the steps of: a. running a strip of baked pastry material off a baking drum; b. conducting said strip around a deflection roller; c. applying an insulating coating substance to one side of said strip; and d. applying said strip to a winding spindle for forming said strip into a hollow shape wherein said strip is applied to said spindle with said insulating substance facing said spindle; e. introducing a moist filling into said hollow shape; whereby said insulating coating remains impervious and the moist filling cannot penetrate the baked pastry.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
23 words
The process defined in claim 9 further comprising the step of controlling the width of said insulating substance by using a doctor blade.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process defined in claim 9 further comprising the step of feeding said strip to said spindle at an angle calculated for providing a desired overlap.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
30 words
The process defined in claim 11 further comprising the step of introducing a filling into the hollow shape formed by said pastry strip through a longitudinal bore in said spindle.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process defined in claim 12 wherein the step of applying said strip to said spindle provides a double overlap to said pastry material.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
29 words
The process defined in claim 13 wherein said insulating step further comprises the step of flavoring said pastry strip by using a chocolate material for insulating said pastry strip.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process defined in claim 14 wherein said insulating step includes the step of applying said insulating coating substance only between overlapping turns of said pastry strip.
