A flexible composite conveyor belt, such as for use as a belt wrapper in overlying combination with a metal belt in cooking or heating operations. The belt includes a protrusion attached to a flexible substrate. The protrusion includes an engagement surface adapted to secure the protrusion to a portion of the underlying metal belt to drive the belt at a same speed as the conveyor belt. Protrusions on opposing ends of the belt negate the need for conventional lacing in securing the ends of the belt together. 1. A contact toaster for toasting bread products , comprising:a heating element configured to toast a first side of a bread product;a first belt configured to move the bread product along the heating element; and a flexible substrate having a first face and a second face opposite the first face;', 'a polymer coating on the first face of the flexible substrate; and', 'a clip fastened to the second face of the flexible substrate, the clip comprising a base abutting the second face and including opposing side edges each curved outward from the second face and curved inward over the base and toward each other to form two oppositely and inwardly facing curved hooks each adapted to directly engage around a corresponding chain, cross-wire, or crossbar of the first belt to attach the second belt to the first belt., 'a second belt configured to wrap around the first belt, wherein the second belt contacts a second side of the bread product, the second belt comprising2.
