This is anticipated to accelerate the demand for instant fat powder in the global market.

Which are Some Prominent Drivers Spearheading Instant Fat Powder Market Growth?

Demand for instant fat powder is surging at a rapid pace on the back of increasing usage in production of dairy products such as ice cream, yogurt, milk-based beverages, and others, owing to its ability to impart a whitening effect, enhance taste, and improve texture. Rising food & beverage processing and manufacturing activities, along with increasing development of cold chain capacities for ensuring the efficient quality of food are estimated to bolster the demand for ingredients used in the production of final food & beverage products.

Also, growing disposable income of the population and increasing improvements in standard of living has led to rise in restaurant chains, bakeries, confectioneries, and other. This is creating strong demand for instant fat powders, used in various food products for increasing creaminess, enhancing mouthfeel & texture, and improving fat distribution.

What are the Challenges Faced by the Instant Fat Powder Market?

Changing eating habits and rising obese population have resulted in increasing the prevalence of conditions such as lactose intolerance, worldwide. According to a report by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), in 2020, nearly 68% of the population across the globe was forecast to be suffering from lactose malabsorption.

As instant fat powders are partly made using skimmed milk or whole milk, containing high percentage of lactose content, this rise in burden of lactose intolerance is expected to hider the sales of instant fat powder. In addition to this, increasing introduction of novel fat-filled milk powders as a replacement to instant fat powders is further restraining the growth in the market.

A multiplicity of such product launches are expected to propel the demand for instant fat powder in the Europe market.
