siliconindia | | APRIL 20194The never ending research & innovation in the field of food engineering is the reason we bite new delicacies very often. Technology and science together have revolutionized the food industry, and confectionery is no different. That is why the global confectionery market size is expected to reach $284.4 billion by 2025. From chocolates, biscuits, savouries, healthy nuts to bakery items, the demand for the products is constantly increasing in countries like India & China due to the increasing population, rapid urbanization, changing dietary habits and economic growth. But when it comes to India, the country which preferred local flavours now experiments with international flavours. However, factors like obesity, breathlessness and stomach disorders due to irregularities in eating habits are resulting in increasing health awareness and consciousness regarding the high calorie food consumption. Hence, they are looking for healthy snacks but without compromising on the taste and quality. Hence, experimenting with flavours and ingredients are the major maths that the confectionery companies have to work on. On the other hand, the rising population of vegetarian and vegan people puts bigger challenge for the industry to overcome. Realizing that the growing market is crowded with international & indigenous companies, getting quality products within budget is always a challenge for consumers.
