Food designer Chloé Rutzerveld has developed a concept for “healthy and sustainable” 3D-printed snacks that sprout plants and mushrooms for flavor.

“Edible growth is exploring how 3D printing could transform the food industry,” she says in the movie. “It is about 3D printing with living organisms, which will develop into a fully grown edible. As it comes out of the 3D printer, you can see the straight lines of the technology,” she says. “But as it develops, you can see organic shapes. You can see the stages of growth and the development of taste and flavor. By 3D printing food, you can make the production chain very short, the transport will be less, and less land is needed,” says Rutzerveld.”But also, you can experiment with new structures. You can surprise the consumer with new food and things that haven’t been done before.”
