Foodini - 3D Food Printer

Heads up Star Trek and Jetson's fans, we just moved one step closer to the future!

"Barcelona start-up Natural Machines has just launched its new invention: Foodini, a prototype 3D printer that can produce a range of foodstuffs on Kickstarter. Although it is not going to print out whatever you desire, Foodini is able to print savory or sweet cuisine, for example a perfectly-round pizza dough, and put on an even layer of sauce too. It is capable of printing a wide range of real, fresh, nutritious foods, including pastas (ravioli, gnocchi, spaghetti, ...), burgers (veggie and meat), chicken nuggets (and chickpea nuggets as a vegetarian alternative), quiche, pizza, "designer" fish & chips, hash browns, cookies, crackers, brownies, chocolate, etc."

"Foodini comes with empty food capsules, meaning the consumer prepares and places fresh ingredients in Foodini. All you need to do is load the ingredients into Foodini's food capsules, and then watch different ingredients to be built up in layers following selection of a design on the device's control panel. with room for up to 5 food capsules, consumers don't have to manually change out the food capsules for different ingredients when printing. Foodini will let you pick from a number of pre-tested recipes or even build your own."
