Diastatic malt extract is derived from sprouted grains and is used as a substitute product replacing sugar and honey needed to feed yeast in bakery products. Another important feature of diastatic malt is that it can also reduce the need for additional artificial sugar in bakery products and thus can be labelled as sugar-free. Also, as diastatic malt is rich in vitamins and enzymes, it increases the nutritional value of baked products and also helps in extending the shelf life of baked products.

The key trends influencing the Europe malt extract market include,

  • Increasing preference for gluten-free bakery products: Concerns about rising obesity levels is prompting consumers in Europe to opt for gluten-free bakery products. Gluten-free malt extract is used as a colouring and sweetening agent in a variety of products. Owing to this, it is expected that demand for malt extracts will witness steady growth during the period 2016-2026.
  • Government regulation on additive-free products: The industry-wide focus on additive-free products has led to increased demand for malt extracts, as these reduce the need of adding synthetic flavours, resulting in extended shelf life of products.
  • Marketing aligned with ‘health and wellness’: Manufacturers are focusing on selling the ‘health and wellness’ attributes of malt extracts, by creating relevant marketing campaigns.
  • Preference for sugar-free label products: Non-diastatic malt extracts naturally convert to sugar, reducing the need for addition of sugar. Owing to these factors, demand for malt extracts is expected to witness an increase during 2016-2026.
