Abstract
A tool for forming a folded pastry from rolled-out dough. The pastry tool includes a frame having an edge for cutting the dough, the cutting edge being formed in the shape of the peripheral outline of a pair of circles intersecting at two points. The two points of intersection define a line along which the dough, cut out by the tool, may be folded. Further, one of the circular sections of the frame is made larger than the other of the circular sections to allow that portion of the dough formed by the larger of the circular frame sections to overlap the smaller circular section of dough while accommodating a filling therebetween. The pastry tool also includes a sealing flange extending inwardly from said frame a distance above the cutting edge to simultaneously seal and trim two layers of dough.

An apparatus for forming a folded pastry from rolled-out dough, comprising:
- a frame having an edge for cutting the dough, said cutting edge formed in the shape of the peripheral outline of a pair of circles intersecting at two points, the two points of intersection defining a line for folding the dough to form said pastry.
An apparatus for forming a folded pastry from rolled-out dough, said pastry having a filling therein formed substantially in a semi-sphere, the apparatus comprising:
- a frame having an edge for cutting the dough, said cutting edge formed in the shape of the peripheral outline of a pair of circles intersecting at two points, the two points of intersection defining a line for folding the dough to form said pastry and the radius of one of said circles being approximately one-half inch greater than the radius of the semi-sphere of filling.
