It’s almost Easter<\/a> and with it, its chocolates of all shapes and sizes as well as its always enticing sweets! At 3Dnatives, we love chocolate as much as 3D printing and that’s why we are highlighting today the different ways that exist on the market to get 3D printed chocolate. First, there are manufacturers who have developed machines to extrude this sweet treat layer by layer. The solutions have multiplied in recent years and it is even possible to create gravity-defying, incredible structures! The other possibility to have 3D printed chocolate is to buy it directly from a dedicated company. They are indeed some who offer chocolates made using 3D printing, either directly 3D printed or from a 3D printed mold. It is indeed another way to get chocolate: you can design a complex mold – a bell, a rabbit, a fish – and pour your chocolate into it. Whichever method you prefer, you’ll be satisfied! Happy Easter to all!<\/p>\n

byFlow<\/h4>\n

Based in the Netherlands, the company byFlow has developed a chocolate 3D printer, called 3D Chocolate Shaper. It’s a more compact machine than its predecessor, much more reminiscent of a desktop FDM 3D printer. What’s particularly interesting about byFlow’s approach is the online platform it has developed to allow users to access designs and recipes easily and quickly. Any type of chocolate can be used, as the machine is equipped with a temperature control system.<\/p>
