    摘要: A method and a device are described for creating a pattern (7) of a first fluid in a second fluid, the density of which is adapted, as a function of the viscosity thereof, to the density of the first fluid, and wherein the two fluids are immiscible or are miscible only with difficulty, said device comprising a storage container (1) for the first fluid and an injector which is connected to the storage container (1) and is associated with a positioning unit (5). In order to make it possible to create floating patterns (7) of a first fluid in a second fluid, in particular in the food sector for creating predefined floating patterns (7) in beverages, it is proposed that the injector forms a capillary (3) which is connected to the storage container (1) via a metering device (4) and the length of which corresponds at least to the maximum pattern depth in the second fluid, and that the outlet tip (9) of the capillary (3) is movable by way of the positioning unit (5) in the longitudinal direction of the capillary (3) and in at least one direction transverse thereto.
