Abstract: Process for the production of filled food hollow mouldings, in which each hollow moulding has at least one cavity, which is open to the environment and filled with a filling material solid at ambient temperature and having a cross-sectional dimension between approximately 0.25 mm2 and approximately 1 cm2, characterized in that in a first stage the hollow mouldings are coated at reduced pressure with the filling material, a filing material coating temperature being set in such a way that the filling material is flowable and in which in a second step the pressure is raised, so that the flowable coating material enters the cavities.

Abstract: A device for metering products in paste form is provided including a metering chamber having at one of its ends a common filling and discharge opening. A metering plunger is reciprocally mounted within the metering chamber. The product is supplied in paste form into the metering chamber. A distributing cylinder is provided generally perpendicular to the metering chamber and has three lateral openings; namely: a first opening, a second opening facing the first opening, and a third opening axially offset relative to the first two openings. The distributing cylinder also includes a slide valve having a lateral channel and an axial channel.
