Key trends

Following our trip to Food ingredients Europe in Paris this month, the joint December/January issue of CP will have an ingredients focus and an image showing a selection of so-called ‘functional ingredients’ on the cover. Find out more about the key trends in the ingredients market in our FiE review.

Also in the issue, Jonathan Thomas discusses how confectionery manufacturers are improving the nutritional qualities of their products. This is of course in response to the global wellness trend and the growing evidence of ingredients being associated with functional health benefits.

Mike Truitt asks whether your conveyor system and belt providers are responding to your business demands and suggests customised solutions to your manufacturing needs.

We review the chocolate market and the industry in the BRICS markets of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa and consider how chocolate sales are wobbling as emerging market economies weaken.

Looking ahead, its time to start gearing up for ProSweets and ISM, which will take place at Kolnmesse in Germany from 31 January to 3 February. Our February show issue will therefore be a bumper one, so if you’d like to appear in our show preview, please get in touch with all your show news – [email protected]. We look forward to hearing from you.
