Coffee Printer - Custom Edible Ink Images (VIDEO)
Custom Edible Ink Images

“Give me a grande caramel espresso drink with an… image of the Mona Lisa painting on top. No! Make it that picture of me and my grandma at the Grand Canyon. Here, it’s on this flash drive.”

You wouldn’t expect to hear this at your local coffee shop and in fact, you won’t, at least not for now. But if you visit Oleskiy Pikalo, you could use his customized Philips 8155 x-y flatbed plotter to print an image on the top of your morning caffeine drink. The latte art printing machine prints like a normal printer, it just uses edible ink.

Oh.. my.. gosh... This is too cool! People would pay a fortune for a custom coffee like this... Making Personalized Photo Luxury Lattes could be part of fture barista training!

It would have to work ALOT faster than 2 minutes to realistically be used in a coffee shop. I have to disagree with Bianca, no one would pay money for a design on top of their coffee.

It's a niche thing; I don't think it's fair to say NO ONE would pay extra. You'd be amazed at the things people are willing to pay a lot of money for, especially custom stuff.
