Device (1) for forming a carpet (2) of confectionery mass (3), comprises a first gap formation element (4)； and a second gap formation element (8). The second gap formation element is formed as a rotationally drivable roller with a circumferential surface and a first outer diameter. The first gap formation element, and the second gap formation element are arranged and formed relatively to each other to form a gap, through which the confectionery mass and the thickness of the carpet can be inserted through the height of the gap.

The first gap formation element, and the second gap formation element are arranged and formed relatively to each other to form a gap, through which the confectionery mass and the thickness of the carpet can be inserted through the height of the gap. The second gap formation element is formed so that the carpet is collected on a part of circumferential surface of the second gap formation member, carried with the surface during the rotation and can be removed from the surface. The second gap formation element has a respective co-rotating driving element in its two axially outer areas with a larger second outer diameter compared to the first outer diameter.
