Emulsified Shortenings Market Advancements in Food Texture and Shelf Life

The global emulsified shortenings market is anticipated to grow at a moderate CAGR range of 5% to 6% from 2022 to 2032. The target market is set to reach a significant value by the end of 2032. Many manufacturers in the food and beverage industry are keen on releasing products with new and unique tastes. This factor is expected to influence the emulsified shortenings market and drive it towards a considerable market size by the end of the forecast period.

Icing shortening or high ratio shortening is also referred to as emulsified shortening. This shortening is a type of fat extracted from animal fats or vegetable oils. Emulsified shortenings are of white color and creamy texture. These shortenings have a neutral taste and thus, they do not meddle with the other flavorings. Hence, the product observes high demand from the food and beverages sector.

Emulsified shortenings also possess micro emulsifiers that serve as molecular matchmakers by holding water, oil, and shortening together, which ensures that the products are holding moisture for an extended period of time. These shortenings further aid in enhancing the taste, and texture, increasing the moisture and improving the mouth feel of the food products. All of these properties of emulsified shortenings guarantee high popularity for the product across the food sector.

Moreover, emulsified shortenings also assist with increasing the volume of bakery products, improving crumb structure in cakes, helps in strengthening the gluten network in the dough, and enhancing the structure of whipped products. Owing to these considerations, emulsified shortenings are finding extensive applications in the preparation of different products including dairy, bakery, confectionery, and desserts.

Thus, the surging consumption of cakes, bread, brownies, ice creams, smoothies, candies, chocolates, desserts, and other food items all over the world will likely foster growth for the emulsified shortenings market during the forecast period.

“The growing food and beverage sector, particularly the bakery and confectionery segment, is expected to offer lucrative opportunities to the global emulsified shortenings market, leading to its substantial growth over the forecast period,” says an FMI analyst.
