I wonder if this process could be done some other way.



Lets say I want to get this result, but without boolean.
Made with bool-difference



I could think of only one way and it is beveling. I make loopcut, then push one edge inside the cube and bevel it, also I used 2 more loopcuts to limit the beveling, but it does not look circular. Do you have any trick for that?

  • I don't fully understand why you would not want to use the Boolean modifier, when it gives you the desired result. If you need to have the geometry editable, then just apply the modifier and delete the subtracting object.

If you want to keep it in quads you could do something like this.



You need to activate the loop tools add-on and use the circle function.
Sorry for the poor quality gif. I hope it is clear what I did there.



Here is a brief summary.



I made a plane and scaled it x 2 so I can cut it in half later.



Added some edge loops in both directions and scaled them down in X or Y direction.



Selected a square of vertices and clicked the circle button in loop tools.



Cut out the circle, cut off half of the plane and then extruded it up.

Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of
