SPECIAL EDITION | Special edition: Sugar reduction in 2025 |
|
|
If 2024 was the year sugar reduction went mainstream, 2025 is the year it gets personal. From protein-packed gummies to watermelons that produce a sweetener that’s 200-300 times sweeter than sucrose, the stories in this issue reveal a food and beverage industry not just responding to consumer demand for less sugar – but rethinking how sweetness is delivered altogether. This special edition explores the full spectrum of innovation: from Protein Candy’s fitness-forward confections and Blobs’ playful, low-sugar flavour fusions, to BlueTree’s selective sugar removal tech and Elo Life Systems’ bioengineered sweetener breakthroughs. We also spotlight the rise of advanced ingredient solutions – like organic tapioca fibre, sweetness modulators and sweet proteins – that aim to preserve sugar’s bulking and textural qualities while cutting its caloric load. And we examine the shifting economics of sugar itself – prices are falling, but the long-term outlook remains volatile – alongside the consumer paradox at the heart of it all: we love sweet, but we know we need less. Whether you’re reformulating, reporting, or just curious about where the sugar conversation is headed next, this collection offers a snapshot of the strategies, science and sentiment shaping the future of sweetness. |
