Elshopo celebrates the King of Pop with 200 silkscreened pancakes (or maybe crêpes).
Who is Elshopo? According to thier website…
Elshopo is an artistic collaborative platform founded in 2001 in Grenoble (FR) by three young artists. It’s a meeting place for art, design and economy wich is stongly oriented towards an artisanal and experimental practice of the silk-screen medium. Elshopo re-visits the universe of graphic industry and encourages the production of multiple art in order to set up a philosophy based on artistic exchanges and dynamic transmission of the knowledges. It’s the position that Elshopo has kept since the begining and will keep in the future too, even in the cyberspace.
See more of Elshopo’s edible printworks.

Windell Oskay, Lenore Edman and Chris Brookfield constitute the Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories, a collective of .. well, mad scientists who make some very cool stuff. In keeping to their open source code, they make their inventions available to the larger public via their website and flikr slide shows. In 2007 they started working on a DIY 3D printer that used sugar to make some the greatest rock candy the world has ever known.
Candyfab 4000, top of the line 3D sugar printer, circa 2007
 It’s always best to test on white bread first.
 The updated CandyFab 6000 now in Beta testing.
While it may look like some new superior form of breakfast cereal, the geometry above is made entirely out of sugar. Yummers!
Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories has also cranked some other printeresting project in the past. Here is just a sampling.
 DIY stickers for organic farmers.
 And the classic “Don’t Fear Art” bumper sticker.

Meatcards is an enterprising venture that wants to print your contact information onto a piece of jerky.
In their own words:
We start with 100% beef jerky, and SEAR your contact information into it with a 150 WATT CO2 LASER.
Screw die-cutting. Forget about foil, popups, or UV spot lamination. THESE business cards have two ingredients:
MEAT AND LASERS.
Unlike other business cards, MEAT CARDS will retain value after the econopocalypse. Hoard and barter your calorie-rich, life-sustaining cards.
MEAT CARDS do not fit in a Rolodex, because their deliciousness CANNOT BE CONTAINED in a Rolodex.
Who doesn’t love delicious jerky + contact information?
I am curious if they can they print on to 18×24″ sheets of jerky?
Posted by RL Tillman on April 9th, 2009 | Sometimes, there are no words:
Be the first in your neighborhood to have your image, or that of a loved one, mysteriously appear on a piece of matzo. Matzography™ (mat-zo-gra-phy) is a proprietary process that produces a fine art print that will be treasured by you and your family for generations. A unique gift idea and great conversation piece.

After posting about Leslie Tucker’s prints about White Bread, I had to ask if anyone prints on or with white bread. And I discovered that Vanessa Vobis has indeed done a series of prints on wonder bread. I am not sure how she prints on the bread, but I love the surface and the element of history the work has. It also proves that Wonder Bread is not only soft, delicious, nutritious, but also printable!
