Chocolate spreads are sweet flavored pastes consumed majorly in a form of spread on toasts, breads and other bakery products such as pancakes, muffins, pitas, waffles and additional flavors. These spreads consist of functional ingredients such as whey powders, olive oil and cocoa powder which depict excellent spreadibility at all temperatures. These spreads are majorly sold in plastic tubs and glass jars. Chocolate spreads and peanut butter owing to its high palatability are gradually gaining traction as an alternative to jam and marmalade and has become an integral part of every breakfast.
The market is witnessing significant growth owing to widespread acceptance of bread in daily diets majorly among urban population, where requirement of a suitable spread as a complement becomes a necessity. Increasing use of chocolate spreads as a substitute to butter owing to its low fat content, high nutritive value and easy spreadibility at refrigeration temperatures over food products such as ice cream toppings, croissants, instant hot chocolate are some of the key factors bolstering the market growth. Chocolate spread is perceived to be healthier and competes strongly against spreads made of butter as they constitute high amount of fats whereas the former (chocolate spreads) are made of actual seeds. Rising demand for ready to eat products owing to hectic and changing lifestyles has promoted the usage of readymade chocolate spreads. Increasing health benefits associated with chocolate spreads is also expected to drive the market over the forecast years. For example, Nutella, a hazelnut chocolate spread contains saturated fats and sweet, but also contain vitamins and minerals needed to boost heart health making it fairly nutritious food to be incorporated in everyday meals. However, growing consumer attention over other counterparts such as oats, cereals as breakfast meals along with fluctuating price of cocoa and sugar is expected to hinder the market growth.
Geographically, North America is projected to dominate the market in the coming years followed by Europe. The growth in North America is attributed to the rising preference for chocolate spreads not only in young ones but also among old age groups. Also, increased disposable income and higher expenditure power results in increased purchasing of chocolate spreads. Chocolate spreads market in Europe is expected to be driven by the rapid changing lifestyles which has led to shortage of times for making homemade recipes, leading to the use of readymade products. Asia Pacific chocolate spreads market is anticipated to grow at a rapid pace over the forecast period owing to large population base as well as prevailing trend of taste innovation among local manufacturers. Furthermore, rising demand for chocolate hazelnut spread owing to its appetizing taste as well as surging per capita expenditure on ready to eat premium products is another factor driving the market.
Some of the key players operating in the market include J.M. Smucker, Kraft Foods, Unilever Group, ConAgra Foods Inc., B & G Foods Inc., Ferrero Group, Hershey Co., Nestle, Wellness Foods, Premier Foods and Naturefood Chocolatier.

Conventional chocolate spreads were formulated by substituting palm oil by palm olein along with cotton seed oil at an approximate levels of 25%, 50% and even 100%. Cocoa and sugar used as chocolate ingredients are grown with the help of chemical fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides. Consumption of conventional chocolate spreads is linked with certain health disorders such as high cholesterol, stroke, high blood pressure, and even cancer.? . Over the years, cost effectiveness has been a key factor supplementing the growth of conventional chocolate spreads.
Organic chocolate spreads are projected to grow with a significant CAGR over the forecast period. The rising trend of cocoa and sugar production by farmers, with the use of biodynamic and organic fertilizers and pest deterrents acts as a healthy alternative to conventional ones and is expected to surge the market growth.

Also, glass bottles preserve the carbon dioxide content for a long period which ensures that taste and quality of spread remains the same. Growing trend for lightweight bottles and ease to carry around feature are some of the factors driving the market. Additionally, excellent thermal insulation property makes bottle an ideal choice for storing spreads.
Rising innovations in pouch designs such as pouches with plastic caps along with rapid transformations in global packaging industry is expected to be the driving factor for the market growth.
