This includes a growing demand for natural sweeteners such as honey, maple syrup, and coconut sugar, as well as a preference for spreads made with real fruits and nuts. Additionally, the trend towards plant-based diets and the rise of veganism has also impacted the market, with an increasing demand for spreads and sweeteners that are free from animal products.
