Abstract: A toasting apparatus includes a housing in which is mounted a heating platen having two opposed heating surfaces. Conveying means are positioned on each side of the heating platen with each conveying means being spaced from a respective heating surface defining respective paths for travel of a bun half. Positioned at one end of the heating platen and the conveying means are two discharges for discharging a bun half from a respective path. At the other end of the platen there is provided a feed opening which is adapted to receive separated bun halves with each bun half being fed to a respective path with the inside face of each bun half being adjacent a respective heating surface for toasting. The conveying means conveys the bun halves from the feed end to the discharge end. The bun halves are discharged such that the inside faces of the bun face one another for facilitating assembly of a sandwich or the like.
