3D Food

Incredibly Detailed & Amazingly Beautiful, Edible 3D objects

With advances in digital food manufacturing and food 3D printing, we can produce anything you can imagine with the press of a button. Surprise and delight guests with beautiful and edible objects, where hundreds of objects can be prepared all at once from your own kitchen. Recipes can now be saved electronically and the same portions are repeated over and over again, reducing inconsistency in final food recipes from manual labor. From promotional food packages to personalized gifts, we design 3D food products for weddings, graduations, exhibitions, birthdays and for event planners with a wide variety of 3D edible products (sugar, chocolate, dairy, meat, fish, cookie, pasta, pastries, fruits, vegetables and cake). Additionally, 3D food has seen other applications in the medical field where a nutrient-dense product can be produced by digital food fabrication. This is relevant to people suffering from swallowing impairment, dietary restriction and obesity. 3D Food technology is a one-of-a-kind gourmet experience in which all the food, all the utensils and all the furniture can be completely produced through 3D printing and digital fabrication in an immersive, futuristic space.

 

3D Edible Toppers & Objects

Draw inspiration from our love for details and our desire to create crafted desserts and edible objects for special occasions. People are used to having edible pictures, images and decoration. We also utilize conventional additive manufacturing to produce 3D food safe molds for professionals and enthusiast. With advances in 3D food production, figurines, cake toppers and edible utensil are all a possibility with complex designs produced on demand for a wide range of occasions, including weddings, conferences, exhibitions, birthdays, graduations and other events. Design your own personalized logos, brands, drawings, texts and even images and see them transformed into a custom made, 3D recipe that suits all occasions.

3D Culinary Arts

This is where fine cuisine meets art, philosophy and tomorrow’s technologies. As there is nothing like the future, we are investigating emerging technologies in culinary professions with passion and insatiable curiosity. Just as gastronomy involves more than food, this field may represent a vision beyond technology. In particular, actual chefs would broaden their use of technology to push the boundaries of the recipe making through detailed control of ingredient deposition, mixing and in-situ heating/cooking. Thus, 3D food enables professionals to create customized shapes, textures and flavors by using fresh ingredients or ingredients that would otherwise be thrown away. This changes the way food is prepared and experienced while aiming to contribute towards a more sustainable world.

Dysphagia & Dietary Management

Dysphagia refers to swallowing impairment conditions. Commonly found in the elderly, food for such conditions are often obtained through pureed or minced food portions with high nutrient densities and bite sizes (depending on the level of the condition). With food texture being a critical factor, such products are often produced in combination of other pureed ingredients. With 3D food manufacturing, new and novel shapes are provided with such conditions that are both safe and appealing to look. The food is seen as vegetables, fruits, chicken, etc. But it is actually pureed, appealing and safe-to-swallow. With Food 3D printing, patients can feel more satisfied with their meal and promote social activities. Additionally, food can be designed to control chew/swallow times to tackle issues with obesity, meat alternatives, nutrient deficiency and physical health. Also, prescriptions and controlled nutrient depositions can be mixed/integrated into a digital food process to provide optimal drug doses and effect.
