This week, it was trying out the avocado, which, on the scale of things, was quite the proverbial success.
Even more so when you consider the first effort at the printable taco…
We probably need more tortilla next time, right?
Taco Tuesday with #c3dprintio
Published by C3DPrintio
This is the blog of the #c3dprintio #3Dprintedfoods project. Funded by the ARC under DP200101462, our team of Professor Bronwyn Hemsley Professor Susan Balandin and Dr Stephen Dann and their Foodini 3D food printer sidekick will look at the feasibility of making safe 3D Printed Food for People with Swallowing Disabilities. 3D Printed Food for People with Swallowing Disability. This project aims to identify ways that 3D food printing (additive manufacturing using real food in a device like a ink-jet printer) could be used to improve the visual appeal of puree meals for people with swallowing difficulty, who make up ~8% of the world's population. This study will be the first to include people with swallowing disability (e.g., related to cerebral palsy, stroke, older age) and their supporters in examining the views and experiences of stakeholders on the impact of 3D food printing on quality of life, enjoyment, participation, and safety. Outcomes include new knowledge on factors affecting the implementation of 3D food printing in disability and aged care services, to inform policy, practice, and future research. View more posts
