Now, a 3D printer that creates edible 'fruits'
To use the printer no specialist knowledge of cuisine or molecular-gastronomy is required, and, the fruit produced is all organic.

London: A UK company has developed a 3D printer which can print fruits, such as an apple or a pear, in a jiffy.

The printer uses a molecular-gastronomy technique called spherification. It combines individual liquid droplets with different flavours into a fruit shape.

To use the printer no specialist knowledge of cuisine or molecular-gastronomy is required, and, the fruit produced is all organic, according to the company Dovetailed in Cambridge, which is working with Microsoft.

"Our 3D fruit printer will open up new possibilities not only to professional chefs but also to our home kitchens - allowing us to enhance and expand our dining experiences. We have re-invented the concept of fresh fruit on demand," Vaiva Kalnikaite, creative director and founder of Dovetailed was quoted as saying by 'Cambridge News'.

"With our novel printing technique, you can not only recreate existing fruits, but also invent your own creations. The taste, texture, size and shape of the fruit can all be customised," Gabriel Villar, chief inventor at Dovetailed.
