New 3D Food Printer Creates Amazing Sweet
Art.
|

3D printing is a relatively new but still
well known field. The idea is simple, if you can print something on paper
in 2D then why not make a printer that can use plastic and create 3D
models? But did you ever image that you could one day print food?
This revelatory idea comes from a company called 3D Systems, and it's
amazingly innovative, beautiful and delicious.

The printer uses
sugar, water and alcohol to form complex and delicate creations, and just
about any kind of flavor and color can be added.

While these
food printers are still new technology and cost about $5,000 - $10,000 US,
they will no doubt become cheaper in the near future, and I think demand
will be high. In a few years we might find ourselves saying things like
"Dessert is in the printer!". |
