Abstract:

The health and wellness trend has pervaded both the bakery and snack sectors and is experiencing a bigger growth than regular packaged foods, driven by changing consumer preferences towards more natural offerings. The increasing prevalence of snacking is creating more avenues for better-for-you, more nutritious and function-specific snacks.

For emerging snack makers, new use occasions, pairings, new flavours and new ingredients are driving consumption. However, the trend comes with its own challenges – what are these? And how is it affecting those treats specifically targeted at indulgence?

In that vein, what ramifications will the HFSS regulations set to be enforced in October have for the snacks and bakery sectors. Will this movement take roots and be adopted by policymakers around the world?
