DeliPrint Combines 3D Printing and Baking in Argentina

More and more often we find 3D printing in very different fields. The advantages brought by this technology have been exploited in a wide variety of projects that require freedom of design and fast manufacturing. Latin America has not been the exception, as for some years now, small and medium-sized companies have emerged that have opted for 3D printing as their main production method. Today we will learn about a new application of 3D printing in the food industry, precisely 3D printing in baking. We recently had the opportunity to interview the founder and creator of DeliPrint, Paula, who told us more about the company. She and her team use 3D printing in pastry to manufacture cutters and stencils. Her unique and customizable designs meet the creative demands of pastry chefs.

My name is Paula, I’m 31 years old and I’m from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I first encountered 3D printing in 2017 when I was working as a pastry chef. In my country, I couldn’t find many cutters and tools for decoration available, and I found on the internet that they could be manufactured with 3D printing. So I decided to buy a printer to make my own cutters for the themes I would need.

At that time I was pregnant and I thought it might be a good idea to start making the cutters to sell them, since I could do it from home and continue working without problems. I had many difficulties when starting to use the 3D printer, I did not know that there were so many variables and parameters to configure. I had technical problems that, thanks to the internet, I was able to solve. Everything was trial and error.
