Tired of drinking boring milk and generic milk candies? If your answer to this question is yes, then you might look forward to this type of food which may be available in the near future: 3D-printed milk food products.
A team at Singapore University of Technology and Design overcame these limitations and figured out how to print milk products at room temperature using a method called cold extrusion. Their magic ink: powdered milk. The stuff you keep in your pantry just in case. The best milk ink, they found, is 70 grams of powdered milk per 100 grams of water.
This discovery could lead to entirely new food concepts. “Given the versatility of the demonstrated method, we envision nutritious and visually appealing foods, with various needs for nutrition and material properties,” the researchers wrote.
Yum!
