Modernist cuisine
3D Systems had the honor to cooperate with the modernist kitchen, working on the creation of the final dishes in the dinner of 50 dishes for Ferran Adria in Spain. This last meal consisted of submitting absinthe printed with the 3D-printer "lumps of sugar" and the special 3D-printed ceramic spoons. Thanks to the Spanish chef Adria roots of traditional sugar cube turns into a colorful whimsical structures resembling pipe Gaudi in Barcelona. Unusual ceramic spoons for absinthe also been developed specifically for this case.
