Candy Mechanics is in the business of personalised chocolate, but the company’s latest service takes that idea one step further: chocolate people. Or rather, chocolate heads, known as Lolpops. All you need is a smartphone or tablet to film a 30-second, close-up video of someone’s mug from all angles (Candy Mechanics’ website talks you through the process). Upload that video, and fancy Autodesk software builds a 3D model from the footage that’s then used to create chocolate heads on sticks.
