3-dimensional printers can create objects from plastic and metal, and they can also print, cook, and serve foods. The Dutch designer Chloe Rutzerfeld suggests blending food, gardening, and 3D printing. First, a dough-based outer casing containing edible soil and various seeds is printed. After a few days, the seeds start growing and poke out of small holes in the case. However, this design is currently in the concept stage.
