Let's Make 3D Printed SPACE Pizza!



In 2013, We Built the World's First 3D Pizza Printer for NASA.




But in 2014, Congress Shut Us Down :(
The United States Congress authorized massive budget cuts to NASA – $1.1 billion less than President Obama requested.¹ In effect, our special project with NASA was defunded.


PLEASE HELP US, For Science (and Pizza)
We are funding the development of our 3D food printing technology through this Kickstarter.
We need your support. Here's the deal:


1. Order a Unique 3D Printed Pizza
Our pizzas are fun and delicious!
You'll be able to choose from a variety of fun pizza shapes once the Kickstarter is complete. Most pizza shapes will be approximately 10in at their widest points.


2. Receive Your Frozen Pizza via AirMail
We'll send you a frozen-packed 3D printed pizza in the mail. Your pizza will be made in a FDA approved facility by our 3D pizza printers. Finished pizzas will be wrapped in commercial grade packaging with industry standard dry-ice to ensure your pizza arrives frozen and ready to cook after it's journey from Texas.
We'll also send you a customized certificate announcing that you were one of the first humans to ever consume 3D printed space pizza – very rare memorabilia!
New Expected Delivery – October 2016
3. Order a 3D Pizza Printer!
Don't let the astronauts have all the fun!
Now you can create great tasting, uniquely shaped pizza right at home. The BeeHex 3D Pizza Printer uses normal pizza ingredients (dough, tomato sauce, and cheese) that you can buy from your neighborhood grocery store.
When you order a BeeHex 3D Pizza Printer, you will receive the latest designed model including instructions, extra parts, and support from our team to begin printing pizzas right away!
Expected Delivery – October 2016
We'll Get Back to Work
There's still so much research and development left for us to do.
Our goal is to commercialize 3D food printing technology for use in space travel, restaurants, and at home. Your pledge directly impacts the development of this future technology.

PLEASE SHARE THIS PROJECT
We need as much help as we can get. Please share our Kickstarter campaign with your friends, journalists, investors, elected representatives, pizza lovers, and science enthusiasts.

Risks and challenges
TECH
We successfully built our first 3D pizza printing machine in 2013. Since then, we have been improving the printer and materials technology. The technology is proven and highly functional. There is very little risk of failure due to technology.
TASTE & FOOD
We are continuously improving our recipe and ingredients. We want to deliver a GREAT tasting pizza. As we source the best ingredients, there may be some unforeseen delays. Possibly, but unlikely.
SHIPPING & REGULATIONS
Because we are delivering consumable food products, we will need authorization to deliver to your State. We have experience in obtaining FDA and county permits. We will need to scale up our permits to meet national regulations. This may cause unforeseen delays, but we have already begun this process.
