The global market for frozen baking additives is growing rapidly

In the past few years, the global frozen baking additive industry has embarked on a higher growth trajectory, and the role of food additives has become particularly important in the process of food processing. Now there are many categories of additives on the market, including preservatives, antioxidants, emulsifiers, stabilizers, thickeners, flavoring agents, sweeteners, pigments, etc.
The world is witnessing the growth of a lot of baking additives business, and the frozen baking additives market is growing as consumers are choosing more affordable frozen baking products. Therefore, additives for multifunctional purposes play an important role in the baking industry. For example, lecithin is used as a catalyst or stabilizer in frozen bakery products; Similarly, different acids can act as preservatives and antioxidants. For example, lactic acid in milk and milk products is used in the baking industry to extend shelf life and improve product flavor. This growth will continue in the future and is expected to lead to innovative specialty baking additives that meet the needs of an increasing number of health conscious consumers while providing increased nutritional value.
Additives help the frozen bakery market win opportunities
The global frozen bakery market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 71% by 2018. In the Asia-Pacific region, people have introduced frozen bakery products in recent years, so the growth rate in the Asia-Pacific region is likely to be high.
The study found that the global frozen bakery market will be worth $32.5 billion by 2018. Among them, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to show a fast growth trend.
The frozen bakery market is a promising area, both in terms of consumption figures and its ability to extend shelf life. But manufacturers still face challenges, such as maintaining the volume of frozen baked products when they are re-baked and maintaining the texture of traditional breads. Researchers published a study earlier this year showing that the freezing process and storage can negatively affect the quality of bread. Frozen bread that doesn't bake well will be smaller, more dense, and harder than bread that is baked straight.
The study also looked at ways to improve the quality of baked and frozen bread, including gels, enzymes, antioxidants, emulsifiers and yeast fermentation as natural options. "Unbaked frozen whole wheat bread could be greatly improved by adding yeast to it," the researchers concluded, observing the yeast rise of frozen bread. However, this depends on the characteristics of the yeast and the amount used.
