Abstract

The present invention relates to an apparatus capable of supplying a portion of warm food product, consisting at least of one food component, for example selected among typical components of the dressing of a pizza, and used for filling an edible container, for example a wafer, creating a ready-to-eat single-dose warm food product. The apparatus provides a heating chamber (20) comprising a recess having an inner heated surface (82), in which a piston (84) slides sweeping the surface (82) and pushing towards an outlet (83) at least one food component (33) heated in said heating chamber (20) and coming from a magazine (30). The magazine (30) may be refrigerated (32), and a liquid food component (40) may be added. The heating chamber (20) is heated by an electrical resistance (81). The apparatus, furthermore, comprises a system (50) for applying a dressing on the upper surface of the product and a carousel (60) for positioning automatically an edible container (71) in different operative stations.
