To make it difficult to spill the food material by strengthening the winding tightening force at the both end portions of the bar-shaped food material when the food material shaped like a plate is formed into a rod shape, the density of the food material is substantially uniform throughout the whole A rolling roller for food forming and a food forming apparatus.SOLUTION: The rolling roller 41 for rolling food material by rolling is characterized in that both end portions in the direction of the rotation axis of the peripheral surface used for rolling the food material have diameters Becomes smaller as shown in FIG. A food forming apparatus using the food forming rolling roller 41 as at least one of the rolling rollers.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION【課題】板状に成形した食材を巻いて棒状に成形したとき、食材の密度が全体にわたり略均一であり、棒状の食材の両端部の巻締力が強化されて食材をこぼれにくくすることができる食品成形用圧延ローラおよび食品成形装置を得る。【解決手段】回転することにより食材を圧延する食品成形用圧延ローラ41であって、食材の圧延に供される周面の回転軸方向の両端部が、回転軸方向の外方に向かって径が小さくなるテーパー部416になっている。圧延ローラの少なくとも一つとして前記食品成形用圧延ローラ41を用いた食品成形装置。【選択図】図1
