Europe Dark Chocolate Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2021-2026

Market Overview:

The Europe dark chocolate market is currently witnessing steady growth. Dark chocolate is a bittersweet or semisweet variation of chocolate. It is an excellent source of flavonoids and antioxidants, which contribute to its pigment and create a rich and intense flavor. Dark chocolate is used to manufacture a wide variety of products, including chocolate bars, candies and baking chocolate. In Europe, manufacturers have launched low-calorie, sugar-free and functional dark chocolates for health-conscious consumers across the region.

The Europe dark chocolate market is primarily driven by the increasing health consciousness among consumers as they have become more aware about the health benefits associated with the consumption of dark chocolate. It reduces blood pressure, improves blood flow to the brain and heart, and makes blood platelets less sticky and non-agglomerated. It also increases good cholesterol (HDL) levels and protects LDL against oxidation, thus lowering the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Besides this, the rising popularity of organic dark chocolate has prompted manufacturers to incorporate organic ingredients and natural sweeteners, thereby positively impacting the market. Moreover, market players are introducing new dark chocolate packs with a longer shelf life and reduced transportation risks to attract price-sensitive consumers. On account of these factors, the market is expected to continue its steady growth during the forecast period (2021-2026).
