Similar to 3D printers used in prototyping that use layers of resin, this printer uses chocolate instead. The result is precise edible designs made of Chocolate!!!<\/p>\n

Obviously retailers would love to buy these and make all sorts of custom chocolates. Think of the possibilities! forget simple designs and words, how about faces, animals, places etc.<\/p>\n

here are a few pics of the initial chocolates made from this printer<\/p>\n

for more information on 3D printers, this is an interesting writeup on Wikipedia: http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/3D_printing<\/a><\/p>\n

This is similar to a story that came out a few months ago, but in that case the “3d printer” was more of a chocolate cnc machine, carving the chocolate from a slab. you can read the story here: http:\/\/thefutureis3d.com\/node\/85<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
