The baked goods market in Asia Pacific is mainly driven by the strong performances in China and Japan. Growth is driven by younger generations, mainly millennials, consumers who are more open to adopting Western lifestyles, including regular consumption of baked goods. Additionally, increased demand for value-added or healthier products is driving purchases through e-platforms, capitalising on consumer connectedness.

Key Findings

Southern Europe’s consumers reducing nutritional reliance on bread

Southern Europe’s bread market is in decline due to the negative perception of bread. Consumers in Spain, Italy, Greece and Turkey all see links between high bread intake, poor digestion and weight gain.

Northern European consumers may be about to turn back to bread

Not long ago, Northern European consumers too turned away from bread for much the same reasons. Now there may be a rebound on the horizon as the UK and the Nordic markets are benefiting from rising interest in craft-style baked goods. Additionally, gluten-free diets are criticised for increasing diabetes and cancer risk in Danish, Norwegian, Finnish and Swedish media.

Demand for cakes and pastries set to continue and become more indulgent

Cakes and pastries outpaced bread in value terms over the review period across Western Europe. The trend is set to develop using ideas from chocolate confectionery, positioning around new consumption occasions and casual snacking. Meanwhile, cake manufacturers should consider competition from snack bars and sweet biscuits.

Unpackaged bread bake-off has allowed retailers to strengthen private label sales

Ready-to-bake dough pieces prepared industrially for baking in store ovens has been a successful high-margin concept during the review period, especially in markets where packaged baked goods is larger than unpackaged. This has allowed retailers to strengthen their position in private label negotiations with bakeries but is now set to mature over the forecast period.

Craft baking - a powerful UK trend ripe for testing in other markets

Craft baking is a growing opportunity for artisanal outlets in the UK to monetise the indulgence trend, for packaged bread to grow through the use of gut health- positioned sourdough and for home bakers to learn to appreciate baked goods. Western Europe can look to the example of the UK for forecast period ideas.
