Scientists and chefs from Switzerland and Italy have built a robotic wedding cake you can eat in its entireity.
As part of the EU-funded RoboFood project, researchers from EPFL in Switzerland and Italy’s Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) teamed up with pastry chefs and food scientists from the EHL hospitality school in Lausanne to create an incredible feat of robotics and gastronomy.
Their creation, the RoboCake, is being showcased at Expo 2025 in Osaka.
“Robotics and food are two separate worlds,” explains Professor Dario Floreano, head of the Laboratory of Intelligent Systems (LIS) at EPFL and coordinator of the RoboFood project. “However, merging them offers many advantages, particularly in terms of limiting electronic waste and food waste.” Scientists are also exploring applications in emergency nutrition and healthcare.
“Edible robots could be used to deliver food to endangered areas, to deliver medicines in innovative ways to people who have difficulty swallowing or to animals, or even to monitor food freshness using sensors that can be consumed.”
At the heart of the project is the RoboCake – a robotic wedding cake showcasing the potential of this emerging field.
It features two fully edible robotic teddy bears, developed by EPFL’s LIS.
“They are made from gelatin, syrup and colourants,” says Bokeon Kwak, a researcher at LIS. “They are animated by an internal pneumatic system: when air is injected through dedicated pathways, their heads and arms move.”
The bears, which move and dance on the cake, have a flavour described as soft, sweet pomegranate gummies.
IIT researchers led by Dr Mario Caironi have developed the world’s first edible rechargeable battery, crafted from vitamin B2, quercetin, activated carbon – and chocolate. “These batteries, safe for consumption, can be used to light the LED candles on the cake,” says Valerio Gall *** Local Caption ***

Scientists and chefs from Switzerland and Italy have built a robotic wedding cake you can eat in its entireity.
As part of the EU-funded RoboFood project, researchers from EPFL in Switzerland and Italy’s Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) teamed up with pastry chefs and food scientists from the EHL hospitality school in Lausanne to create an incredible feat of robotics and gastronomy.
Their creation, the RoboCake, is being showcased at Expo 2025 in Osaka.
“Robotics and food are two separate worlds,” explains Professor Dario Floreano, head of the Laboratory of Intelligent Systems (LIS) at EPFL and coordinator of the RoboFood project. “However, merging them offers many advantages, particularly in terms of limiting electronic waste and food waste.” Scientists are also exploring applications in emergency nutrition and healthcare.
“Edible robots could be used to deliver food to endangered areas, to deliver medicines in innovative ways to people who have difficulty swallowing or to animals, or even to monitor food freshness using sensors that can be consumed.”
At the heart of the project is the RoboCake – a robotic wedding cake showcasing the potential of this emerging field.
It features two fully edible robotic teddy bears, developed by EPFL’s LIS.
“They are made from gelatin, syrup and colourants,” says Bokeon Kwak, a researcher at LIS. “They are animated by an internal pneumatic system: when air is injected through dedicated pathways, their heads and arms move.”
The bears, which move and dance on the cake, have a flavour described as soft, sweet pomegranate gummies.
IIT researchers led by Dr Mario Caironi have developed the world’s first edible rechargeable battery, crafted from vitamin B2, quercetin, activated carbon – and chocolate. “These batteries, safe for consumption, can be used to light the LED candles on the cake,” says Valerio Gall *** Local Caption ***
