A method and apparatus for producing bowl-shaped food products from a fat-containing compound. The apparatus includes a mold block having hollow molds formed by depressions so as to define an inside surface of the food product and a support frame having a die block formed by die elements, each having a bulge for determining an outside surface of the food product. The interchangeable support frame is movable with respect to the mold block between an operating position and a non-operating position, such that in the operating position the die elements are disposed within a respective hollow mold. The die block and the mold block can be independently cooled during operation. The support frames and the die blocks can be quickly changed to form food products having different shapes.
