Cookies Market

Market Overview:

The global cookies market is expected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1% during 2023-2028.

Cookies refer to a type of baked product that is typically flat, crispy, and sweet. They are generally prepared from wheat flour, sugar, baking soda, etc., and mixed with some common ingredients, including oats, coconut, chocolate chips, almonds, etc., to enhance the flavor. Some of the widely available types of cookies include filled cookies, molded cookies, no-bake cookies, pressed cookies, rolled cookies, sandwich cookies, low-fat cookies, etc. These are usually sold across confectionary shops, bakeries, patisseries, cafes, supermarkets and hypermarkets, online stores, etc.

Cookies Market Trends:

The changing consumer dietary preferences along with the increasing demand for convenient food products are primarily driving the global cookies market. Moreover, the rising consumer inclination towards packaged and ready-to-eat (RTE) food items due to hectic work schedules and sedentary lifestyles are also propelling the product demand. In line with this, the elevating levels of urbanization and the growing number of artisanal bakery shops and patisseries offering diverse varieties of baked goods are further catalyzing the global market for cookies. Additionally, the escalating consumer health consciousness has led to the emergence of numerous cookie variants with low-calorie, gluten and lactose-free, and high fiber ingredients, which, in turn, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the increasing concerns towards the presence of synthetic additives in conventional bakery items are also bolstering the demand for organic, clean-label, and fortified alternatives. Besides this, the emerging café culture and casual outings have catalyzed the consumption of cookies as a light snack to go with hot beverages like coffee or tea, thereby stimulating the market growth. Moreover, several key manufacturers are introducing innovative packaging solutions and uniquely flavored variants, including pineapple, buttercream, oatmeal, raisin, etc., in order to expand their consumer base. Numerous other factors, such as extensive investments in quality standardization, increasing utilization of robotic technology in bakery processing, rising popularity of customized cookies in different shapes and sizes, wide product availability across e-commerce platforms, etc., are expected to drive the global cookies market in the coming years.
