CONSCIOUS CURIOSITY

Plant-based and Blended trends of 2023

The demand for plant-based, light and blended products is evolving.

Conscious Curiosity is one of the 3 Global Trends to look out for in our latest Trend Report 2023.

CONSCIOUS CURIOSITY

Consumers are increasingly concerned about their impact on the planet, and about their own health. They expect great taste and texture in lighter versions of their favourite foods. To tap into this trend, and because of rising ingredient prices, customers have become more interested in innovative blends that incorporate plant-based alternatives as well as full-on vegan options.

Blended Benefits

The demand for plant-based is evolving. A trend that is on the rise: combining dairy with plant-based ingredients. As result, we are able to deliver great taste and nutrition. Our research reveals guilt-free indulgence will extend beyond beverages, to bakery, pastries and other segments. Our blended creams for example, deliver superior stability and a longer shelf life.
