in september 2013, 3D printing company 3D systems acquired the sugar lab, the husband-and-wife start-up micro-design firm of liz and kyle von hasseln dedicated to creating bespoke, 3D printed edible confections from real sugar. working together, the two parties are redefining and expanding the possibilities of creating sweet indulgences at home, as well as for commercial applications.
‘the overlap of technology, food and art is so rich, and the potential for customization and innovation is limitless,’ said liz von hasseln, cofounder of the sugar lab. existing commercial applications for printable sugar include complex sculptural cakes for weddings and special events that are made possible only with 3D printing, and customizable confections for bake shops and restaurants. continued von hasseln, ‘we
see our technology quickly evolving into a variety of flavors and foods, powered by real food printers for professionals and consumers alike and we could not think of a more qualified partner than 3D systems to help make that a reality.’
