Overview

Narrative review reveals structural design strategies for healthy oil inks in 3D food printing, highlighting avenues for customized nutrition and saturated fat replacement.

Key Points

  • To evaluate structural engineering strategies, rheological adjustments, and nutritional impacts of formulating healthy liquid oils into printable 3D food inks.
  • Systematic synthesis of material design strategies including oleogels, emulsion gels, and Pickering emulsions for 3D printing applications.
  • Evaluation of printing parameters and rheological adaptation to overcome liquid oil extrudability, stability, and oxidation challenges.
  • Structuring healthy liquid oils via oleogels, emulsion gels, and Pickering emulsions successfully provides the viscosity and self-supporting properties required for extrusion-based 3D printing.
  • Controlled ink formulation and printing parameters protect unsaturated fatty acids against oxidation and degradation during food manufacturing.
  • Engineered oil-based matrices offer viable platforms for personalized diets and medically tailored nutrition by modulating nutrient delivery and lipid digestion kinetics.
