Abstract

[PROBLEMS] To provide a method and a device for producing a roll cake in a beautiful scroll figure free from unrolling and twisting. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] The roll cake production device comprises a rolling section (40) for rolling up a baked cake sheet into a tube shape, and a cooling section (80) for cooling a rolled up roll cake, wherein a roll cake is produced while an intermediate product of cake is fed automatically to respective sections sequentially. The rolling section (40) has a primary rolling section (50) performing primary rolling by rotating the cake sheet in a circular forming recess, and a secondary rolling section (70) for shaping the primarily rolled cake while reducing its diameter. The cooling section (80) has a conveyor for conveying the roll cake, and an unroll prevention net placed onto the upper surface of the conveyor while kept stationary. Since the rolling direction of the roll cake at the primary rolling section (50) is identical to the rolling/tightening direction of the roll cake at the cooling section (80), the roll cake can be conveyed without turning in the plane parallel with the rolling axis between the primary rolling section (50) and the cooling section (80).
