Abstract
The article presents a new concept that can be used in the food industry by manufacturing customized food products with 3D printers. This technique allows the production of personalized food products both as shape, colour, aroma and even as a nutritional value. Applications in the food industry can offer an engineering solution for new products and a tool for design specialists by creating food products with complex shapes that cannot be obtained by classical processes. Also, this technology can be a solution for researchers exploring cosmic space and long-distance space missions.
