Interactive Parametric Tool

A web-based tool that generates parametric pastry forms where geometry, colour, and surface qualities emerge directly from nutritional data. Users compose recipes from a component library — mousse, gelée, glaze, biscuit, and more — and the resulting cake's silhouette, filling bands, and surface texture visually encode sugar content, saturated fat, fibre, and protein, allowing visitors to read a cake's healthiness from its shape.

The interface offers six silhouette archetypes generated by dominant flavour — Orb, Gem, Dome, Cushion, Drum, Capsule — along with cross-section and exploded-view "health lens" modes, a persistent shelf gallery via localStorage, and exports for spec sheets, snapshots, and JSON collections. It reframes nutritional labels as an aesthetic language for pastry designers, dietitians, and curious eaters.
