15.3 Material application
15.2 Materials
Thick Paste Extruder has a wide potential for experimental applications in art projects,
material research, and custom cake decorations. Its simple construction also makes it
safe for educational purposes and working with children. The toolhead can print using
medium and dense masses like ceramics, Nutella, chocolate and sugar toppings, and
cookie dough. Feel free to experiment with other materials like silicone, porcelain, avo-
cado paste, or cheese, to achieve results through trial and error.
