Health is a consumer megatrend. 47% of Europeans try to eat healthier and views chocolate as a guilty pleasure and every second consumer is looking for healthier chocolate options. With sugar as the number one avoided ingredient in food items, the demand for sugar-reduced chocolate products and applications is on the rise. In fact, 54% of consumers are willing to pay more for sugar-reduced chocolate. Clearly, many producers of chocolate products are recognizing this trend: the market for sugar-reduced confectionery is still small, but already growing at twice the rate of general chocolate confectionery.
