WikiCell
WikiCell is a food‑packaging concept in which the container is itself edible. The packaging consists of a natural soft membrane that encloses the food or drink, optionally protected by a hard shell that is edible or biodegradable.
The concept was developed by bioengineer David A. Edwards and collaborators around 2010. A startup company, originally called Incredible Foods, was established in 2012 to commercialize the technology.
As of 2019, the original consumer product line has been discontinued. Foodberry now operates as a food‑tech company offering edible and compostable coating and packaging technology, often in partnership with other food brands.
While WikiCell remains a recognized edible‑packaging technology, it appears not to have achieved the widespread commercial distribution once envisioned, and its current use is primarily within a B2B technology platform rather than a mainstream consumer product line.
