What is the next frontier of 3-D printing?

Answer: the pancake

A video posted on YouTube in April shows how Miguel Valenzuela combined his love of robotics and pancakes to create a 3-D printer -- the PancakeBot-- that can design pancakes with special shapes.

This is just one example of the kinds of things being made by those with an interest in cooking and 3-D printing. A blog called 3Digital Cooks shows off many edible creations enabled by 3-D printing. Those interested in owning their own PancakeBot can visit pancakebot.com to learn more.
