Method and system of making a shortcake in a package container

A method for manufacturing a shortcake in a package container conveyed by a belt conveyor for mass-production of a packaged shortcake, comprising the steps of:

• 1) preparing a package container having a top surface, a bottom surface, and tapered side walls outwardly in an upward direction wherein an area of the bottom surface of the package container is smaller than an area of the top surface of the package container, and the top surface of the package container has an opening;
• 2) supplying the package container to the belt conveyor and placing the bottom surface side of the package container on the belt conveyor;
• 3) setting an insole film to cover an inner bottom surface of the package container, conveyed by the belt conveyor, wherein the insole film is formed on at least a pair of the tapered side walls facing each other, and both ends of the insole film are extended to an outside of the package container from the opening, so that the insole film is pulled out to take the shortcake out from the package container when eating the shortcake;
• 4) forming a topping layer of the shortcake on the insole film covered on the inner bottom surface of the package container conveyed by the belt conveyor;
• 5) forming a first cream layer on the topping layer in a manner to cover the topping layer and be spread over the inner bottom surface of the package container conveyed by the belt conveyor;
• 6) placing a cake block having a smaller area than that of the first cream layer in a manner to be attached on the first cream layer in the package container conveyed by the belt conveyor;
• 7) forming a second cream layer on the cake block to cover and sandwich the cake block with the first cream layer, and a part of the second cream layer is directly laminated on the first cream layer wherein the cake block is placed between the first cream layer and the second cream layer to avoid deformation of the first and second cream layers in the package container conveyed by the belt conveyor;
• 8) placing a cake platform on the second cream layer in a manner to cover all of the second cream layer in the package container conveyed by the belt conveyor wherein the shortcake is produced in an order from the topping layer to the cake platform in Steps 4) to 8) called reverse process;
• 9) covering the cake platform by separately folding each end of the insole film extended to the outside of the package container, conveyed by the belt conveyor, from the opening in Step 3) of setting,
• 10) sealing the opening of the top surface of the package container, conveyed by the belt conveyor, by a bottom lid in a manner to support all of the shortcake;
• 11) flipping the package container upside down to place the topping layer on top of the shortcake and the cake platform on the bottom of the shortcake which are produced in Steps 4) to 8) By the reverse process;
• and
• 12) performing the mass-production of the packaged shortcake.
