If you have ever wanted to make some really unusual looking pancakes, but didn't have the time to carefully move your arm so that you could make designs while pouring the batter, then you will definitely want to check out the PancakeBot! This amazing device is the world's first pancake printer. Created by Miguel Valenzuela, this 3-D printer allows you to use pancake batter instead of plastic to make edible pancakes out of whatever design you upload into the printer's memory banks. The project originally started out as a LEGO project, but eventually turned into a project involving a modified 3-D printer. Emanuel came up with the idea as a way to encourage his daughters and other children to get interested in science by being able to make really cool designs out of pancake batter using a 3-D printer. The system is very easy to use. You just upload an image that you wish to use, trace the image, and upload the tracing into the printer's memory banks. L
