Bre Pettis

Bre Pettis of MakerBot Industries built a robot that frosted a cupcake in 52.27 seconds. The intent was for the robot to decorate the entire top of the cupcake, but due to an unfortunate technical glitch, it didn’t perform as anticipated.

The feat was performed on June 26, 2009 in New York City during the taping of a URDB segment on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Dan Rollman was present as a witness.
