Scientists have taken 3D printing to a new level, this time with food. According to a study published in the journal NPJ Science of Food, a team has created a seven-ingredient vegan cheesecake that is completely combined and baked with 3D printer and laser technology.
CHEESECAKE PRODUCTION WITH 3D PRINTING
Researchers have been pushing the boundaries of 3D printing for decades, using this fabrication technique to produce consumer goods such as furniture and shoes, organs and even rockets, CNN reports. However, cheesecake production with 3D printing is perhaps the most remarkable of them all.
Co-author of the study, Dr. “If this (technology) were released, it would be like having an iPod without MP3 files,” said Jonathan Blutinger.
“So for it to really hit a hit, there has to be a place where you can download recipes, create your own recipes, and be inspired by what you can do with this machine,” Blutinger said. he said.
CAN REPLACE TRADITIONAL COOKING APPLIANCES
Cooking appliances with three-dimensional (3D) printers, lasers or other software-based processes may soon replace traditional cooking appliances such as ovens, stovetops and microwave ovens.
