A confectionery coating is an ingredient product which is made to simulate chocolate in appearance but is not true chocolate as it contains no cocoa butter, which is present in chocolate. A confectionery coating serves many functions in the confectionery product such as a flavoring agent, glazing/polishing agent, color enhancer and lately also as a fortifying agent.
Currently, the fortification function of confectionery coatings is leading innovation and growth in the market. Another functional facet of the confectionery coating which is driving the demand in the market is flavor. As chocolate flavor is now inducing a ‘boring’ effect in the confection market, availability of flavor varieties is a key driving factor for the growth of the confectionery coatings market.
Manufacturers in the confectionery coating market are also offering new flavor varieties as a specialty offering, as specialty tags are enabling marketers to add up the value of the confection products.
Lately, there has been a marked increase in the launch of confectionery coatings containing healthy and label-friendly ingredients. In fact, developers are using confectionery coatings as a route to boosting consumption of healthy ingredients. These developments are effectuated by the health conscious trends in the food industry, as consumers are increasingly cutting down the consumption of confection products due to health risks.
Hence to curb this situation which is threatening the growth of confectionery coatings market, manufacturers are compelled to reduce saturated fats, artificial sweeteners and other chemically active ingredients included in confectionery coatings. Confectionery coatings to target vegan consumers have also been launched in the market.
Furthermore, key participants in the confectionery coatings market are emphasizing on promotional activities of products through social media and marketing campaigns.
Additionally, visually appealing designs and colors in confectionery coatings are also supplementing the market growth. At a macroeconomic level, the increase in the price of raw materials of chocolate and confectionery products is disrupting the growth of the confectionery coatings market.
