3D KFC, Fried Chicken Parts Recreated With 3D Printer

Up until now, we’ve only scratched the surface of what 3D printing is capable of. Today is the breakthrough we’ve been waiting for.

Some mad geniuses over at the data modeling firm, iJet, have been hard at work giving the technology a boost — rendering pieces of KFC Fried Chicken. So, what can we actually do with 3D fried chicken modeling technology? More like, what can’t we do?

Fried chicken earrings, fried chicken necklaces, fried chicken keychains, fried chicken… er… I guess that’s it. Pretty awesome thus far though.

A 3D-Sculpted Alphabet Using Food and Other Everyday Objects

food-alphabet

Know your 3D-rendered ABCs. The Sculpted Alphabet is brought to us by German design studio FOREAL — rendering all 26 letters using Cinema 4D.

The letters that look good enough to eat are only part of the series, as they employ various everyday objects and body parts as inspiration. However, we focused on the food-related ones because that’s how we roll.

Snoopy 3D Latte Art

We’ve seen the three-dimensional works of latte artist Kazuki Yamamoto before. But now there’s Snoopy.

Everyone’s favorite beagle was adorably re-created in foam, as Yamamoto gets ready for an epic latte art showdown in Tokyo.

Unless someone else is recreating that moment when Lucy pulls the football away, as Charlie Brown goes flying over the coffee cup — we’d say Yamamoto’s got this one.

3D Animals In Your Food Is Officially A Thing

It’s not just capybaras swimming around in your food anymore. The trend of 3D edible animals in meals has officially exploded. Thanks to some creative use of ground-up radish, we’re seeing an assortment of adorable animals hanging out in a lot of dishes throughout Japan.

Referred to as “Daïkon Art,” other foods are sometimes introduced to create eyes and ears, with soy sauce making a great way to add color and contrast. Have fun biting their adorable little heads off.

You Can Print A Pizza Now

Picking up the phone, ordering a pizza, and then waiting in upwards of 30-minutes for it to arrive is for suckers. The future is here, and it involves printing your own pizza.

Brought to us by Barcelona-based Natural Machines, the Foodini is a 3D printer that can print out dough and sauce. And, with some additional toppings, can deliver a pizza-like object. Hopefully in 30-minutes or less, or we want it free.
