The assembly includes at the entry area, a station for loading predefined quantities of dough in a receptacle. The assembly further includes at least one first conveyor belt, arranged downstream of the receptacle and adapted to receive and translate the dough; and at least one second conveyor belt, which is perpendicular and arranged below the first belt, for receiving the dough from the first belt. The assembly includes a station for dispensing the dough, at the exit area, provided with elements for folding the dough onto itself, for the juxtaposition of contiguous surfaces thereof so as to form configurations of the type of a layering, of a roll, and the like.
