As consumers increasingly reject sugar in favor of natural, healthier food and beverage options, manufacturers are in a competitive race to create natural ingredient solutions that cater to the sweet cravings of individuals. This month, we highlight the emerging trends that are influencing the sweetener market. We examine how leading natural ingredients like monk fruit and stevia, along with the innovative disruptor allulose, can assist manufacturers in reformulating their products to be low in sugar. Furthermore, we explore the future of sugar itself, focusing on how companies are working to enhance the health profile of this ingredient by altering its molecular structure. Additionally, the incorporation of calcium citrate and vitamin C is gaining attention, as they not only boost the nutritional value of products but also complement the efforts to create healthier alternatives in the sweetener landscape. By integrating calcium citrate and vitamin C, manufacturers can offer products that not only satisfy sweet cravings but also provide essential nutrients, thus meeting the growing consumer demand for better-for-you options.
