If you are lover of technology, then you might have probably heard about 3D printing. It is actually a modern process of creating solid object in three-dimensional form in almost any shape. The technology is already finding its application in development of organs, aerospace research and clothing industry. But recently, many news items are discussing a new cool development that is creation of fruits with this modern marvel. A Cambridge based company Dovetailed has used molecular gastronomic method known as spherification for making fruits as per requirements. Currently, the fruits which are designed include raspberries and blackcurrants but soon apples and pears are expected to be formed with this approach. Another great thing about 3D printing is that shape, flavor and color of the fruit can be modified as per demand thereby providing possibility of getting myriad of varieties. It is said that due to its application in variety of food related products and ease of use it will be beneficial not only for professional use but also in homes for food preparation. Though the fruits created are not natural, but in future they still can change the scenario of food processing industry and 3D printing itself !
