Methods and apparatus for forming an edible product. The apparatus comprises an inside tube, an outside tube extending along and around the inside tube, and a plurality of deflector plates extending across the passageway between the tubes. A first edible material is conducted through the inside tube, and a second edible material is conducted through the passageway between the inside and outside tubes. The deflector plates guide that second material into longitudinally extending spaced apart strands, and also form longitudinally extending spaced apart zones substantially free of the second edible material. The first edible material expands into those zones to form a product having alternating outside strands of the edible materials.

A method of forming an edible product, comprising the steps of: conducting a first extrudable edible material forward through a first passageway; conducting a second extrudable edible material forward through a second passageway extending along and around the first passageway; guiding the second edible material into a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart strands extending forward from the second passageway; forming a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart zones, between said strands, extending forward from the second passageway and substantially free of the second edible material; and expanding the first edible material from the first passageway outwardly to fill the zones and to from a food product having alternating outside strands of the first and second edible materials.
