Description
Choc Creator 2.0 3D Chocolate Printer
The Choc Creator 2.0 from Choc Edge is a simple, yet versatile desktop 3D chocolate printer. It has been developed for creative users who love to experience new technologies, exploit broad technical settings and boundaries of the printer, and having a lot of fun with their creations. Choc Creator uses the latest 3D printing technology to reach a high level of personalisation, flexibility, and control over your chocolate creations. In 3D chocolate printing the chocolate is tempered, loaded into a specially designed syringe, and deposited into a 2D cross-section on a substrate – like a printer printing a 2D image onto paper. You can create your designs using any 3D design program capable of producing STL files: Choc Creator will be able to print them out! Choc Creator is a desktop-sized, user-friendly machine with a 5″ LCD touch screen interface that will enable you to connect via WiFi to your computer, rather than staying plugged in.
Choc Creator 2.0 FAQ
- What type of chocolate can be used in the Choc Creator?
We highly recommend the use of high-quality, machine-tempered, Belgian dark chocolate as it has consistently shown better printing results compared to other types of chocolate, due to its high level of cocoa solids. However, it is possible to print with different kinds of chocolate including milk chocolate and white chocolate.
- How do I melt the Chocolate for Printing?
All Choc Edge designs are validated using machine-tempered Belgian Dark Chocolate (Callebaut 811NV). So for the best results we recommend using a professional tempering machine but there are other methods of tempering chocolate, like by hand or using a microwave.
