Abstract: A two cavity baker for confectionery items such as waffles and pancakes having a pair of outer shell members hinge-connected to a double faced single inner shell member. The two outer shell members and the inner shell member are mutually hinged together at one side of the baker with the two outer shell members each including a handle protruding from the opposite side of the baker. The three shell members are supported upon a base adjacent the handle and hinged sides of the baker which enables to two outer shell members to be reversed with respect to their upper and lower positions upon pivotal movement about a generally horizontal axis. The pivot connection of the shell members to the base accommodates biaxial rotational movement of the shell members so as to enable the shell members to assume a vertical orientation relative to the base to enable the outer shell members to be opened relative to the inner shell member.

Abstract: A confectionery grill having upper and lower hinged heating elements in which the upper heating element or grill unit can be adjustably spaced at its hinge from the lower heating element or grill unit during the cooking cycle.

Abstract: A baker for waffles, pancakes and similar food items which includes a pair of hinged shell members in which the food item is baked. The shell members are supported upon a base and each includes an electrical heating element. The hinge connection between the shell members accommodates the wiring for the heating elements. Such wiring extends through a shaft member to an electrical power source, with the shaft member accommodating rotation of the shell members as a unit relative to the base.

Abstract: A baker for waffles, pancakes and similar food items which includes a pair of confronting shell members pivotally supported upon a base member. Each of the shell members has a heating element therein. The shell members are hinged to permit their opening and closing for the purpose of receiving a batter and discharging a baked food item.
