【Vacuum Forming Application】Realistic Handicrafts – Which number are you betting on this round?
Vegas Roulette (chocolate edition) – Which number are you betting on this round? French pastry chef Amaury Guichon is renowned for designing exquisite chocolate desserts. His incredibly realistic creations often create astonishing illusions, from Ferris wheels, robots, and motorcycles to various sizes and shapes (Click here to see:Varied designs of realistic desserts, favored by the French pastry master!). This time, Amaury used vacuum forming technology to design a luxurious marble roulette. See Amaury's purely handcrafted creation:
Vegas Roulette is a common game in local casinos and a symbol of high-end gambling cities worldwide. The roulette wheel has evenly sized grooves, differentiated by red, green, and black colors, each with a number. A wooden spindle stands in the center of the wheel, primarily controlling its rotation. After players place their bets, a steel ball is dropped while the wheel spins. The winner is determined by which numbered groove the steel ball falls into after the wheel stops spinning!

．Realistic wood grain, smooth texture
After Amaury completes the cake base, he places the circular object into the FormBox vacuum forming machine, uses vacuum forming sheets, presses down the handle to mold, and gets the roulette-shaped mold in just 3 seconds! 
The main body of the roulette wheel is structured like a wooden table, with a dark, glossy brown color that is perfectly replicated with chocolate! Next, a small trick to achieve the smooth, lacquered wood effect is to brush a layer of chocolate and oil onto the mold before injecting other ingredients, then fill it with the ingredients. This makes it easier to demold, prevents sticking, and results in a smoother, more complete appearance.
(The FormBox food-safe clear casting sheets can be safely used in the food industry and are comfortable for skin contact.)
The reusable nature of vacuum forming sheets means that once a mold is made, identical objects can be quickly and infinitely replicated. For the hollow chocolate disc, simply inject the desired ingredients, then combine the two halves of the disc to complete the roulette table design!
．Silicone molding for mass production of molds
The spindle in the middle of the turntable is also made of chocolate blocks. In addition to using vacuum forming technology to quickly create molds according to design needs, molds for mass production can also be made through 3D printing and silicone casting methods (Click here to see:Silicone molding, 3D printing for soap!).
Next, spread black, red, and green chocolate sauces evenly on special edible sheets. Use a stencil to print the roulette numbers, and finally, spray with a gold leaf spray for a luxurious decorative effect!
Isn't it too exquisite to eat? It's a genuine work of art! The food industry boasts a wealth of production techniques, from vacuum forming, 3D printing, to laser cutting technology, all of which can be interwoven. Innovative production methods allow technology and design to spark even more brilliance. Did you enjoy this sharing? 3DMart offers more than just 3D printing.
