Instead of ink-jet cartridges, Inkjet-Nutella uses a form of liquid chocolate (a bit like Nutella), only much finer in consistency, which has been engineered to perform in a similar way to that of conventional ink.
Messages or images get printed unto edible carrier paper. Light and dark chocolate
cartridges enable duo-tones to be reproduced, so that scanned photographs can also be printed out as a tasty snack.

Why not modify a printer to allow it to print onto a (previously formed) sheet of chocolate? Then just use ordinary edible inks. If the ink layer is thin enough, it won't alter the taste of the chocolate. |

If you want the chocolate sheet's composition to depend on the message, it could be seperately constructed by a 3D printer, loaded with dark and light chocolates. |

Start with food died edible paper (pick a color), and then add
white chocolate for a tri-tone result. |
|
|
What about the drying time. Would the print be thin enough to dry quickly, so as not to smear? |

My brother's ex-girlfriend's art show featured a diverse range of items that were made from chocolate, or used chocolate in unusual ways - this included chocolate as an ink, applied using various printing techniques, as well as aerosol-and-stencil methods (a sort of Chocolate Banksy if you will) - but I like the extension into duo-tone printer cartridges. |

Tell your friend to look at the work of Helen Chadwick. (Sadly she died a few years ago.) |
