sugar lab specializes in 3D printed food and stands as the world’s first digital bakery. in this recent collection, the team introduces five types of candies, blending flavors and colors for all tastes. ‘luchador tepache bonbon’ takes shape as a colorful, salted, 3D printed lime shell, filled with milk chocolate, and caramelized pineapple ganache which brings a fusion of sweet and tangy.

the series also includes the ‘chili lime habanero candy’ which is a staple on the streets of LA and is now available in a 3D printed form thanks to sugar lab. meanwhile, ‘margarita lime wedges’ are developed as a 3d printed salted candy that allows foodies to enjoy a new twist on the classic margarita taste.

the ‘mexican hot chocolate sugar cubes’ take form as small geometric gems, ‘made with real cacao and ready to fall into a glass of milk,’ the sugar lab shares. the collection is completed with ‘piñata watermelon lemonade‘ candy which was born as a playful response to the question ‘what would a sugar cube look like if it was also a piñata?’.
