FIELD: baking industry. SUBSTANCE: apparatus has rotary member with set of planetary rollers circulating in annular trajectory, conveying device and arced plate. Conveying device is positioned under rotary member so as to define first gap gradually narrowing from bakery dough inlet end to outlet end, and is equipped with rollers designed so that rotational speed of each roller is gradually increasing from bakery dough inlet end to outlet end. Arced plate is mounted under rotary member, downstream of rollers so as to define second gap, where bakery dough is squeezed with rollers. Such construction allows bakery dough to be rolled into sheet of uniform thickness, having uniform inner layers.
