Global Industrial Chocolate Market-Market Research 2015-2019 - Rising Cocoa Prices is a Key Market Challenge

DUBLIN, Oct. 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wxx5zr/global_industrial) has announced the addition of the "Global Industrial Chocolate Market-Market Research 2015-2019" report to their offering.

The demand for ethically sourced products is growing. This has resulted in the need to attain a certification for a broad range of agricultural commodities. Fairtrade, owing to its quality standards, has gained prime importance in the market, especially in Europe.

According to the report, considering that chocolate is a universal flavor, the market has a growing scope of applications. Industrial chocolate makers have created chocolate products and formulations across a variety of functionalities, flavors, and price points. There is also increasing prevalence for chocolates with customized texture, structure, and sensory attributes. These have given more leeway to players present in the food service and manufacturing industry to integrate chocolate into their products.

Further, the report states that Strong chocolate demand, especially in APAC, and a nascent economic recovery in developed countries has led to a rise in cocoa prices. This has also increased the cost of ingredients such as cocoa butter, which is derived from the cocoa bean. Chocolate manufacturers are forced to pass down the rise in cost of production to the consumer either by reducing the size of chocolates or by raising prices.
