The sugar substitutes segment in ingredient type is expected to be one of the dominant segments in the market.

Consumers are looking for healthier substitutes as they become more aware of the harmful health implications of excessive sugar consumption, such as obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay.

With no taste loss, sugar alternatives provide a means to cut calories and control blood sugar levels. The market for sugar alternatives, including artificial sweeteners like aspartame, saccharin, and stevia-based natural sweeteners, is increasing as health consciousness spreads.

The expansion of the sugar replacements ingredient type category has been spurred by a mix of factors, including increased health consciousness, the prevalence of diabetes, governmental backing, technical advancements, and product diversity. The market for sugar substitutes is anticipated to increase steadily over the next few years as people look for healthier alternatives to regular sugar.

Food color is one of the segments that is projected to grow in the ingredient type segment during the forecast period.

Food colors are essential for improving the aesthetic appeal of food and drink items. Bright, eye-catching colors can draw customers and make things more alluring.
