3D Printer Turns Body Scans Into Gummi Candy

The FabCafe in Shibuya, Tokyo, is offering 3D printed gummi sweets for "White Day," a Japanese version of Valentine’s Day. On March 14, males are expected to give gifts to their sweethearts.

Nine lucky male customers will be selected to have their bodies scanned, rendered, and 3D printed into sweet treats. The event is part of FabCafe’s two-part White Day workshop.

The workshop costs 6,000 Yen per person (around $62), and the spots are limited. FabCafe is an innovative concept that offers a mix of 3D printing and laser cutting in a relaxed, cafe-like atmosphere.
