Gluten-free Desserts and Ice Creams Market Analysis
The gluten-free desserts and ice creams market is projected to register a CAGR of 6.2% over the forecast period.
There has been a significant increase in the demand for natural, organic, and good-for-health food products among consumers in recent years. Thus, the increased consumer demand for nutritious products and the rising number of clean-label product claims are supporting global market growth. The growing prevalence of gluten intolerance and celiac allergies is the primary reason for boosting the demand for gluten-free food products, such as desserts and ice cream. Other groups of consumers include those with a wheat allergy, autism, ADHD, multiple sclerosis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and multiple sclerosis, as well as those who consume gluten-free products as part of the "free from" trend.
Consumers are inclined toward "clean living" with healthy dietary preferences. Also, gluten-free foods are now being perceived as mainstream lifestyle products. Many associations and organizations, such as the Association of European Coeliac Societies and the German Coeliac Society, are structuring the gluten-free market by specifying the use of gluten-free claims on pre-packaged foods. However, one of the major challenges for the growth of the global gluten-free dessert and ice cream market is the high price of gluten-free products compared to regular dessert and ice cream products, which is attributed to the high production cost and the cost of high-quality raw materials used.
