Making Christmas Cookies is the Best Use for 3D Printers

Posted by John C Arkin on December 24th, 2012

The 3D printing technology is here to stay and in fact continues to improve. After guns, guitars, toy figures, and iPhone cases, Ralf Holleis shows the best use of 3D printers is for making cookies, as in Christmas cookies.

Forget about taking baking classes or bugging your grandma to share her best-kept cookie recipe; with a 3D printer, you can impress your loved ones with colorful, tasty holiday cookies, sans the laborious flouring and dough-kneading.

In the video below, Ralf Holleis shows how Christmas cookies are printed using a 3D printer. After creating a 3D model, the cookies are printed using a cookie dough-filled syringe.
