India Dry Cakes Market Drivers

The bakery industry in India has been witnessing significant growth in recent years due to various factors such as changing lifestyles, increasing disposable income, and growing preference for convenience foods. With busy lifestyles, consumers are looking for dry cakes that are convenient to consume and can be carried around easily. There is a higher demand for bakery items like muffins and bar cakes in India due to changing dietary habits and lifestyle choices of the Indian population. Single-serve packaging and smaller-sized packs are becoming popular, as they offer portion control and on-the-go snacking options.

Additionally, the clean label concept is gaining popularity as more consumers are interested in the ingredients in their products. Consumers are becoming more conscious about the products that include ingredients like saturated fats and hydrogenated vegetable oils etc. The current Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) guideline, specifies that trans-fat levels in foods must be decreased from 5% to 3% in 2021 and less than 2% by 2022, coincides with this as well.

Brands are responding to this trend by introducing healthier versions of their dry cakes, using natural sweeteners, and incorporating ingredients like nuts and seeds. Bakeries and confectionery companies in India are offering a range of vegan packed cakes to cater to the growing demand. For instance, Crave by Leena, one of the first vegan bakery in Bengaluru, offers cakes and vegan desserts with gluten and sugar-free ingredients. There is an increasing demand for vegan packed cakes in India. This trend is a result of the growing awareness and concern for animal welfare, health, and the environment. Veganism is gaining popularity in India, and many consumers are looking for plant-based alternatives to traditional dairy-based cakes. The demand for vegan packed cakes is not limited to vegans or vegetarians but has increased among people who are looking for healthier options or have dietary restrictions. Thus, consumers are preferring vegan packed cakes as they are free from dairy, eggs, and other animal-based ingredients, making them suitable for people with lactose intolerance or egg allergies.
