PufFab: Making Shape Transformable Rice Paper for Playful Food Fabrication
Abstract
PufFab is an interactive design-to-fabrication pipeline utilizing Vietnamese rice paper for customizable edible shape transformation. We modified 3D printer hardware to enable the fabrication of 2D patterns that transform into complex 3D structures through frying.
Key Contributions
- Designed an interactive pipeline for customizable edible shape transformation using rice paper
- Modified 3D printer hardware to fabricate 2D patterns that transform into 3D structures through frying
- Presented as a poster at TEI '26
