Health is an important topic
Consumers, especially zoomers, are well aware not only of fashion trends, but also of topics related to health care.
Increasingly, in search of delicious food, people opt for products with a clean label and the right functionality. Bakery and confectionery products are no exception.
Luxury in the public domain
Pastries and sweets, even the most refined ones, are quite affordable. Therefore, today, when people give up expensive purchases in the first place, desserts remain a small affordable luxury.
Local brands and ecology
The consumer wants the product they have bought to be useful or at least not harmful to their health. He expects more openness from the product – where the product was produced, where the raw materials came from, who created this pastry.
And increasingly, customers are leaning towards products from local brands. Local products have a short shelf life and are perceived as fresher and of higher quality.
Innovative confectionery products that combine interesting taste, creativity and responsibility meet the needs of modern consumers.
The use of modern food additives: flavorings, improvers for bakery products, technological auxiliary substances is the way to effective development.
