Flavour is the most important choice for a consumer when choosing an ice cream to eat.
Developments in the ingredients industry has opened up the market to have a wider variety of choices for consumers beyond flavour. These include dairy-free ice cream, low sugar, ethical & organic ingredients and cleaner labels.
Dairy free ice cream is a trend that has been growing rapidly. Surprisingly approximately 65% of the human population have a reduced ability to digest lactose.
Low sugar options are also increasing in the market, and the consumer is also becoming more aware of artificial sweeteners leading to their slowly decreasing use.
Ingredient labels are becoming shorter as more consumers are becoming interested in what ingredients go into the food they are eating.
Despite all these factors the main driver remains the flavour of the product. The most popluar ice cream flavour in the UK is vanilla, shortly followed by mint choc chip!
Reducing sugar content in ice cream couldn’t be easier with our Suglow formulation. Suglow is a natural product that comes in the form of powder and liquid. Suglows natural sweet flavours work perfectly into dairy & non-dairy ice creams, reducing sugar content without loosing sweetness or taste.
At Rerum Ingredients we stock a wide range of flavours suitable for a variety of uses.
