This book discusses 3D food printing technologies and their working mechanisms within a broad spectrum of application areas, including, but not limited to, the development of soft foods and confectionary designs. It provides a unique and contemporary guide to help correlate supply materials (edible inks) and the technologies (e.g., extrusion and laser based) used during the construction of computer-aided 3D shapes.
Users will find a great reference that will help food engineers and research leaders in food science understand the characteristics of 3D food printing technologies and edible inks.
- Details existing 3D food printing techniques, with an in-depth discussion on the mechanisms of formation of self-supporting layers
- Includes the effects of flow behaviour and viscoelastic properties of printing materials
- Presents strategies to enhance printability, such as the incorporation of hydrocolloids and lubricant enhancers
- 3D printing features of a range of food materials, including cereal based, insect enriched, fruits and vegetables, chocolate and dairy ingredients
- Business development for chocolate printing and the prospects of 3D food printing at home for domestic applications
- Prosumer-driven 3D food printing
- Safety and labelling of 3D printed food
Undergraduate and graduate students as well as faculty/researchers in food science/engineering and industry (product development); government researchers and also the public interested in emerging technologies

Sangeeta Prakash
Dr Prakash is an academic at UQ with over a decade of experience focused on research related to food processing and the oral and gastrointestinal dynamics of complex food systems. Coordinate and teach – Food Sensory and Structures and Functional Food. Her experimental approaches span from the use of processing devices (3D food printers, ultra-high-temperature processing plants, homogenisers), mechanical measurements (tribology, rheology), imaging (confocal laser scanning microscopy), electrophoresis, in vitro oral-gastrointestinal model with extension to in vivo human trials (sensory) to understand the changes during food processing from a nano-to-human scale. Dr Prakash has commenced several projects in food 3D printing. She is also a guest editor of Journal of Food Engineering managing the special issue on the recent development on food 3D printing technology.
