This study aims to develop food printing technology using food powder. The composition of the food ink that is safe for nursing care food was determined based on a comparison with the lower limit of viscosity and the upper limit of hardness in Universal Design Food (UDF), as well as the discharge ability and shape retention after forming by a food 3D printer. In order to make the shape of the modeled object similar to that of an ordinary food, we used a scanner with a smartphone application to scan an actual dish, created the modeling data, and then created the modeled object.
