A chocolate birthday gift sculptured after their own likeness. Soon everyone can make their own chocolate gifts. Now this is 3D printing I could get into.

This is awesome since I'll be at Hershey Park again this year and I hope to see some of this there

So does this come with real chocolate or real ink?
anyway, it is a nice product if I can "print" my preferred chocolate castle (and eat it afterwards)

I thought chocolate was already 3-D. All this time I've been looking at 2-D chocolate?

Am I waiting for 4K or 8K resolution? lol

Arguably a lot cheaper than making new molds for every custom shaped order too. I can dig it.
