This article makes me think that pretty soon my food will come from a 3D printer. The pictures that are showed in this article not only make me hungry but also show the level of detail that goes into each individual dessert. Everything from the layering to the finish and color looks like it was carefully thought out and placed. When someone puts that much time into curating something, especially bring CAD software into the mix(get it), it is bound to taste that much better. I would be curious to know what the market is for this kind of stuff and who is buying it. Is it high-class restaurants or are they more just for show? If I am being honest, if someone put this in front of me I don’t actually know if could bring myself to eat it, I would be too busy looking at it and how carefully each line was made. So what is it? A dessert or a sculpture, or both?
These are other-worldly. The tempered chocolate of some of these deserts makes them look like plastic. They also look artificial and futuristic but also somehow delicious. I’m a purist when it comes to patisserie so I like when I see very little frill but a lot of technique but these are so captivating, I can’t stop look at the photos. Creating these molds was so incredibly clever but so simple. I think it shows the importance of learning about tools that you can use to creatively solve problems; AutoCAD is a great example. I would have never thought that a patisserie chef would have a use for CAD but this chef saw a gap or opportunity in their work and knew exactly what tool to use to fix it. If this chef had conceptualized these ideas but not been familiar with the software, they wouldn’t have been able to accomplish these works of art.
Thanks for a great article.I appreciate your idea. I have learnt a lot from it.This article makes me think that pretty soon my food will come from a 3D printer.
