A plastic-free food and beverage packaging technology. The WikiFood technology protects the wrapped food or beverage without exposing it to unnatural materials or chemicals while also delivering benefits of health, convenience and a food experience. The skin is a protective electrostatic gel formed by harnessing interactions between natural food particles, nutritive ions and a polysaccharide.

WikiBarWikiFoods

Food with edible packaging is served around a circular counter at the WikiBar in Paris by French designer Mathieu Lehanneur. The cafe is the first in a proposed chain of WikiBars selling an innovative range of WikiPearl foods that are protected by an edible skin. Products in the range include ice creams that don't melt when touched, yoghurts that can be eaten without a spoon and cheeses that don't need to be wrapped in foil.

Olive oilby Tomorrow Machine

A package made of caramelized sugar, coated with wax. To open it you crack it like an egg. When the material is cracked the wax do no longer protect the sugar and the package melts when it comes in contact with water. This package is made for oil-based food.

Raspberry smoothie

Raspberry smoothie

Gel of the agar-agar seaweed and water are the only components used to make this package. To open it you pick the top. The package will wither at the same rate as it’s content. It is made for drinks that have a short life span and needs to be refrigerated, fresh juice, smoothies and cream for example. The packaging reacts to its environment, for example you could, just by looking at the package, see if it has been exposed to excessive heat during transport.

Blow dough

The “Blow dough” project manufactured dough balloon, using industrial blower, with highest temperature of 600 Celsius, which made the seasoned dough baked during blowing it into the shape of an inflated balloon. In the manufacturing process, local herbs were added to the blowing act and their exceptional senses were assimilated to the dough.

Glow-in-the-dark Cornetto

http://youtu.be/Q-vNt95Owb8

The popular ice cream cone radiates a yellow glow and, when licked, leaves the treat tester with florescent features. Unsuspecting visitors to the film premiere of the ‘End of the world’ at London’s Leicester square were surprised when their flavored frosty bite left them lucent in the dark movie theater, turning their tongues into beacons of light.

Lickestra

Conductive ice cream orchestrates a musical licking performance. For the project, the team has positioned a series of conductive, flavored ice creams onto four white pedestals, each triggering a various sound when licked. From deep baselines to high-pitched ringing tones, the noises and notes produced generate a symphonic tune when played as a group, and an abstract melody when only one person is independently licking their cone.

Experiments

Bioplastic Fantastic

This conceptual project by Johanna Schmeer builds on developments in nanotechnology to create synthetic foods for feeding the world's burgeoning population. She has imagined how products made from enzyme-enhanced bioplastics could produce essential nutrients as a substitute for traditional food resources that could soon run out.

Living Food

Project builds on developments in synthetic biology to propose meals that behave like living creatures. "Breathing life into artificial digestible forms in not merely a fantasy."
