Research published in the <\/span><\/span>American Chemical Society<\/span><\/span><\/a> describes some of the advancements made by food scientists that allow for some of these intricately colorful confections we see available on the market. <\/span>In one instance, researchers were shown to have developed a colorful new ink for 3D art made of mica pigments in alginate, a sugar derived from seaweed that forms a stable gel without heat. Also worth noting is that with its high viscosity, sugar is often added to 3D printed foods to help retain shape.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>
