Ice-cream Premix & Stabilizers Market Size - By Type (Premix, Stabilizer), Stabilizers Type (Gelatin, Guar Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Xanthan Gum, Pectin), Application (Ice Cream, Frozen Yogurt, Sorbet, Gelato, Ice Pops), Distribution Channels & Forecast, 2023 – 2032

Ice-cream Premix & Stabilizers Market Size

Ice-cream Premix & Stabilizers Market size was valued at USD 2.75 billion in 2022 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% between 2023 and 2032, propelled by the rising demand for premium and artisanal ice cream products. Ice cream products with distinctive tastes and those manufactured with premium ingredients are becoming increasingly popular with consumers. Premium and artisanal ice creams are frequently created in small batches with fresh, seasonal ingredients.
 

As a result, the product is of higher quality and has a more complex flavor profile. Manufacturers of these items are increasingly focused on creating new and novel premixes and stabilizers to assist ice cream makers in creating distinctive and delicious products.
 

Price fluctuations in raw materials are a key restraint to the expansion of the ice cream premix & stabilizers industry. The pricing of raw ingredients such as sugar, milk, and cocoa can vary significantly according to a variety of factors such as crop yields, weather, and economic situations. These changes can make budgeting for manufacturing costs and maintaining profit margins challenging for ice cream businesses. Furthermore, the ice cream premix & stabilizers industry is very competitive, with both small and large manufacturers present. This rivalry can make it challenging for ice cream makers to pass on higher raw material prices to customers.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The pandemic of COVID-19 has had a substantial influence on the market for ice cream premix and stabilizers. Demand for ice cream products fell in the early stages of the pandemic because people were confined to their homes and restaurants and ice cream parlors were closed. People have found it difficult to gather and socialize because of social distancing measures. This has resulted in a decrease in demand for ice cream products, since individuals are less likely to buy ice cream for gatherings.
 

Ice-cream Premix & Stabilizers Market Trends

The market for ice cream premixes & stabilizers is experiencing a major trend toward increased demand for natural and clean label components. Consumers are increasingly looking for ice cream that is free of artificial additives and preservatives, prompting makers to employ natural stabilizers and emulsifiers produced from plant sources. Furthermore, there is a growing interest in distinctive and exotic flavors, which is driving innovation in premix formulas to meet changing customer preferences, as well as a growing emphasis on sustainability, which is boosting the use of ecologically friendly packaging materials in the ice cream sector.
 

Ice-cream Premix & Stabilizers Market Analysis:

Based on type, the premix type segment dominated around USD 2.07 billion revenue in 2022. This is because premixes are more convenient and easier to use than stabilizers. Ice cream premixes are dry or liquid mixtures that contain all of the ingredients needed to make ice cream, except for milk or water. Premixes are typically made with sugar, flavorings, and stabilizers. Customers who are looking for convenience and ease of use may prefer to use premixes.
 

Based on stabilizers type, the gelatin stabilizer type segment accounted for 30.5% of the ice-cream premix & stabilizers market share in 2022, due to gelatin's ability to improve the texture and quality of ice cream products. It can aid in preventing ice cream from melting too soon, preventing the formation of ice crystals, and improving the overall creaminess of the ice cream.
 

Based on application, the ice cream segment recorded more than 49.9% of the ice-cream premix & stabilizers market share in 2022. Ice cream is the most common use for ice cream premixes and stabilizers, because of its popularity and widespread consumption. Customers are increasingly looking for ice cream that is created with high-quality ingredients and has distinct flavors.
 

Based on distribution channels, the supermarkets and hypermarkets segment is anticipated to expand at 3.9% CAGR through 2032. Supermarkets and hypermarkets are the most important distribution channels for ice cream premixes and stabilizers because of their vast availability and diverse product offerings.
