Market Dynamics
Growth of Functional and Flavored Beverages is Driving the Market Growth
Due to the growing demand for new tastes and flavors, food-and-beverage manufacturers are innovating new and unique flavor combinations. Floral flavors are gaining traction among food and beverage processors with applications in various products.
For instance, lavender and rose are preferred flavors in flavored waters and teas and are also finding applications in cookies, ice cream, etc. According to Statista, among millennials, 66 percent of the respondents were in favor of floral and fruity scents, while 58 percent preferred fresh and zesty ones.
High Prices of Floral Flavors Can Hamper the Market Growth.
Obtaining the flower extracts or essential oils used to create floral flavors often involves specific sourcing and harvesting processes. Extracting the floral aroma compounds from flowers can be complex and time-consuming. Steam distillation or solvent extraction is often employed to capture delicate and volatile floral compounds.
These floral extraction methods can be labor-intensive and require specialized equipment and expertise, adding to the overall production costs. Higher prices for floral flavors can make them less affordable for some consumers. Price-sensitive consumers may choose alternative flavors that are more economically accessible, leading to reduced demand for floral flavors.
