One of killer applications for 3-D Printing 'at home' may be food printing. In Japan and Asian countries, white rice contains suitable properties to be used as the best deposited materials. In this paper, we describe our trials to use white rice by combining with our original desktop 3D Printer and our original CAE software, and show context-based food applications.
