Sweet without the Sugar
Artificial sweeteners have always been a famous choice for consumers, but next year may see plant based alternatives take precedence over artificial sweeteners. The noticeable growth in health conscious customers will lead the charge in bringing plant based sweeteners to the fore. Jaggery-flavored beverages along with Jaggery-infused spices could be the next big thing in 2023. Raw and unprocessed honey is another product that may find many takers. Available in many variants like jaggery cubes and Himalayan honey, plant based sweeteners are a big hit amongst Conscious Food’s consumers.
The A2 Choice
A2 Ghee is already climbing the popularity charts due to having less saturated fat. While not having any A1 Casein protein that has been known to cause digestive issues, A2 ghee has the A2 Casein protein that is known to relieve stomach issues. A2 ghee is a much healthier substitute to butter too. All these factors will usher a rapid rise in the adoption of A2 ghee in more households.
