Abstract
A method and an apparatus is described for preparing a crunchy food topping of random sized pieces or granules of cooked dough in which the dough is mixed, subdivided to random sized pieces or granules, baked, allowed to cool, sized and packed. The granules can then be applied to a food product, e.g., a dessert such as pie, cake, pudding, etc., by hand. The random sized pieces or granules are prepared within a dough-containing trough or hopper having a rotating cutting or comminuting device, e.g., wires near its bottom end. These wires are supported upon spokes which are mounted rigidly upon a rotating drive axle near the bottom of the hopper. The hopper has an outlet at the bottom through which the granules exit to a conveyor used for transporting them to a baking oven.
