Sugar Free and Healthy Jellies and Gummies to Bolster Its Demand during Forecast Period

• Consumers are shifting to healthier eating habits as the incidence of childhood obesity rises in both developed and developing countries. The high sugar content of jellies and gummies, as well as its link to obesity, are likely to deter consumers from purchasing and consuming Jellies and gummies made from sugar and glucose syrup. This trend has prompted manufacturers to come up with novel ways to reduce sugar and calorie content in order to retain their customer base. To cater to the health-conscious consumer base, jelly and gummy manufacturers are heavily investing in sugar and artificial sweetener alternatives.

• Due to increased demand for animal-free products, jelly and gummy manufacturers are increasingly using vegetable-based proteins and gelling agents in the preparation of jelly and gummy confectioneries.
