Steakholder Foods' proprietary DropJet printer was designed for fish and seafood printing, and the newest innovation from the leader in cultivated meat and 3D bioprinting technology is 3D-printed shrimp. To work with the 3D printer, Steakholder Foods' food technology team developed shrimp-flavored ink to create the first plant-based, 3D-printed shrimps, which are said to authentically replicate the taste and texture of conventional shrimp from the sea.
Before this announcement, Steakholder Foods announced a 3D-printed eel alternative. "By unveiling a second new species of plant-based, 3D-printed seafood this month, we expect to position Steakholder Foods to sell and deliver its first DropJet printer in 2024," said Arik Kaufman, CEO of Steakholder Foods. This addition to the company's portfolio of printed seafood products is poised to expand the global seafood market, and all the while, preserve sea life.
