In a method for preparation of plates, bars or figures of solid, sugarbased edible substances, particularly brittle, a granular solid substance is deposited in a layer on a carrying sheet of an edible substance, such as a wafer biscuit. The layer deposited is then heated to the melting range of the substance. The granular layer thus will melt and further turn into a layer (14) of a solid substance adhering to the carrying sheet. A device for carrying out this method may comprise a depositor for sprinkling granular brittle substance over one or more pieces of carrying sheet placed on a conveyor belt passing the depositor, and a heat radiator arranged over the conveyor belt downstream relative to the depositor.
