Liquid chocolate is often used as topping to various desserts or mixed with milk beverages to add classic sweet flavour. Cocoa provides phytochemicals, which is an antioxidant. The amount of cacao defines different variety of chocolates such as dark, milk or white chocolate.   

MARKET DYNAMICS

  • Liquid chocolates are largely sold during occasions and festivals such as Valentine’s Day, Easter, Halloween, and Christmas, and during occasions such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, mother’s day, and others. According to the International Housewares Association, in 2017, the U.S. retail sales of chocolate products was highest during Easter with a value of US$ 935 million, followed by Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Halloween, and other similar public holidays/occasions with values US$ 776 million, US$ 524 million, US$ 383 million, and US$ 12 million, respectively.
  • Increasing awareness about health benefits associated with chocolate is boosting demand for liquid chocolates. Chocolates contain antioxidants called flavonoids, most notably epicatechin, catechin, and procyanidins. High intake of foods containing flavonoids reduce risk of heart disease. Dark chocolate protects the skin against sun damage, improves blood flow to the skin, increases skin hydration, and improves brain functioning.
  • Stringent government regulations imposed on liquid chocolate manufacturing & packaging is a key challenge for manufacturers to sustain in the market. In the U.S., Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the manufacturing & labelling standards for chocolates.

Therefore, with increasing number of chocolate festivals, the demand for liquid chocolates in Europe is expected to increase during the forecast period.

According to the International Cocoa Organization, from 2017 to 2018, cocoa production in Indonesia was around 2.8 billion tons, with the rest of Asia Pacific accounting for 0.88 billion tons.
