Hopefully have already seen the pictures (if not please check them :). But what do you have to do for printing colorful hummus?
Follow the next steps, it is zzzzzzzzzuper easy!
First you are going to need a 3d food printer that works with syringes or cartridges or capsules. We are using Pinya2 and an air compressed extruder.
Next prepare your hummus, here it is our recipe. And divided in different containers.
Now it is dye time! You can choose any type of dye,we were lazy so we just used some colors we had around: red, blue and green.
Mix each hummus thoughtfully, until you get homgenous colors.
Now is when the fun part begins. Take a full spoon of each color and spooooon it into the cartridge. Should look something like this.
One color at a time press firmly with your spoon. Until you end up with a rainbow effect. Obviously you can choose whatever color you like and whatever sequence! that is the fun part about it!
Once the syringe is loaded (see first picture from the post) is time for printing!
Following you can see some examples, one f my favorite parts is how colors blend. This semi-random effect depends on how you spoon the hummus viscosity,… but who cares is just gorgeous!
We did two tests using Curv3s as a design tool. The last one was this squarish fractal. You can see a curv3s screen shoot and the posterior print.
