Dublin, Sept. 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Pastries Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2021 - 2026)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global pastries market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.44% during the forecast period, 2021-2026.
As an impact of COVID-19, the sales of pastries witnessed greater sales including frozen as well as fresh products owing to the surge in the demand for convenience food. However, the artisanal pastries observed a decline in sales due to limited consumer expenditure on non-essential food products together with a limited production of artisanal pastries, attributed to the social distancing and lockdown measures imposed by the government of various countries around the globe.
The growing popularity of customizable pastries and the increasing innovation in the products is expected to drive the market's growth during the forecast period.
The use of speciality ingredients, like whole-grain bread, concentrates, and sweet goods mixes in pastries, have seen major developments, as a part of overall demand for healthy ingredients, indulgence without calories, and high demand for on-the-go food products. Sweet indulgences, like cupcakes and slice cakes are purchased based on appearance, texture, mouthfeel, and other subjective attributes, and the focus on healthy ingredients is given second priority.
