RUFFLE MAKER

Abstract:

An apparatus for forming a ruffled moldable material includes: a body including an interior space and an extrusion opening that passes through from the interior space to an exterior of the body; and a ruffle formation structure that at least partially covers the extrusion opening, the ruffle formation structure including: a first side; a second side opposite the first side; a first edge attached to the body; and a second edge. In operational use, extruded moldable material is emitted from the extrusion opening along an extrusion direction, and the extruded moldable material interacts with the ruffle formation structure to form the ruffled moldable material by compressing at least some of the extruded moldable material along the extrusion direction.
