circular ring (shape)
In response to your added information:
吐出された流動状食品材料の水輪状の広がりを利用する。。。
I would say:
Use the expanding circular ring (shape) of the liquid as it is poured into the mold....
One more thing - I would advise against using any form of "spit" to translate 吐き出す in any food-related translations (unless you're talking about a human reaction, of course!! ;-) )
HTH a little...

I should add that I'm assuming the 'circular ring' is being used, kind of as a *guide* for introducing additional colors (of the liquid) to the mix, (like when making a marble cake, etc.). Does that make sense in your context?

ripple-like
This is what I would say.
"Ripple" is what you see when you throw a rock into a pond.
Japanese word 水輪 is exact translation of ripple.
Because there is another character 状 after 水輪, this has to be taken care of alos.
Its English equivalent in this case is -like.
In your context the liquidy matter is being spit out from a spout of some kind of machine, and it is far more denser than water, you see it is spreading out in ripple-like manner.
Think about this -- you are making a pancake, and made a butter first (by mixing flour, water, eggs, etc.), then you take this out from the bowl and slowly pour into a pan, that's what you see.
Hope this helps.

: This would be suitable only if the liquid product (bAtter, etc.) is being poured into another liquid medium (eg. oil or water...)

in the form of water ring (or circle)
水輪, pronounced as "suirin", can be literally water ring or circle. It's not a common term, but you can imagine how it's formed if you think of wave rings spreading outwards when you drop a stone in a calm-surface pond. I don't know what it is, but the referred material is liquid and ripples like water.

If stressing, the nuance in Japanese lies in its similarity to water. Please think about it. -

: Yes. Possibly this device is dispensing the liquid in an expanding swirl, such as in the way crepes are formed.

: Please imagine something like honey or a candy (when it is hot and liquid). When it is dropped on the flat place at the same speed, same amount a time , it spreads evenly. I think that is what it looks like.
