Functional Food based Bakery Products (Bread, Cookies and Biscuits)

Typically, a food marketed as functional contains added, technologically developed ingredients with a specific health benefit. Most early developments of functional food were those of fortified with vitamins and/or minerals such as vitamin C, vitamin E, folic acid, zinc, iron, and calcium. Subsequently, the focus shifted to foods fortified with various micronutrients such as omega-3 fatty acid, phytosterol, and soluble fiber to promote good health. Functional food products are not homogeneously scattered over all segments of the food and drink market and consumer health concerns and product preferences may vary between markets. These products have been mainly launched in the dairy, confectionery, soft-drinks, bakery and baby-food market.

Bread, baked goods and cereals are increasingly stepping into the functional food arena, with consumers increasing leaning towards more nutritious products even in the staple food categories. Bakery products can be biscuit, cookies and bread. These products can functional food after enrichment with nutrients, vitamins and proteins.

Factors for Growth

 

Greater health awareness by consumers and the potential for premium pricing are helping to fuel growth in the functional food market. Sustaining this growth will hinge on manufacturers’ ability to focus on food qualities, market effectively, and target the appropriate segments, ideally aligning with the wider public and consumer health and wellness agenda.

Recently, a lot of bakers have entered into three dimensional cakes and theme cakes. Cutting off from the regularity, bakers are now looking at experimenting with many more ingredients like rice treats, and inculcating them into cake designs. Some bakers even make use of wooden planks for support. There is also something as sugar crystal sculptures; where they try and use them as per the theme of the cake. The biscuit category is expected to continue its growth trajectory of 15 per cent going ahead. Growth in bread would be relatively slower.
