Key Trends in the Market

Ice cream refers to frozen desserts containing milk, sugar, cream, and flavourings, among others. It is prepared by combining liquid ingredients such as cream, syrups, and milk under constant agitation and heat. The liquid ingredients are then combined with dry ingredients including stabilisers, powdered milk, and sugar to form a mixture.

 

  • Increased spendings upon indulgent treats such as ice creams owing to rising disposable incomes is bolstering the Europe ice cream market growth. Ice creams are rich in fats and proteins, both helpful in elevating mood. The presence of amino acids such as tryptophan in ice creams promotes the production of serotonin that provides a feeling of wellbeing, calm, and satisfaction.
  • The rising availability of vegan, fat free, and sugar free ice creams in various regions across Europe is providing lucrative growth opportunities to the market. The consumption of vegan ice cream is increasing in the region owing to growing prevalence of lactose intolerance. Whereas the consumption of fat and sugar free ice creams is increasing owing to rising health concerns.
  • Technological enhancements in the dairy industry coupled with availability of ice creams in different forms including brick, tub, stick, cup, and cone, among others is supporting the market expansion. Furthermore, rising investments by the key players of the market towards the development of novel flavours is increasing the product demand in Europe.

Market Share by Flavour

Chocolate flavour is anticipated to account for a significant Europe ice cream market share. This growth can be attributed to the ability of chocolates to trigger the release of serotonin and endorphins in the body. Furthermore, chocolate also contains phenylethylamine, a mild mood enhancer. Chocolate also contains natural chemicals that aid in providing protection against stroke and cardiovascular diseases. The presence of high amounts of flavourings and fats enhances the taste of the ice cream, resulting in their increased consumption.

 

Market Share by Type

Artisanal ice cream is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years in Europe. This growth can be attributed to the utilisation of natural ingredients in the preparation of the ice cream and its stabiliser, emulsifier, and preservative free nature. The availability of artisanal ice creams in a wide range of unique and conventional flavours is boosting the Europe ice cream market demand. The availability of exciting blends and vegan choices is further increasing the popularity of the product among food enthusiasts and lactose intolerant individuals.
