Caramel Ingredients Market Growth & Trends

The global caramel ingredients market size is expected to reach USD 4.75 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., exhibiting a CAGR of 7.1% from 2025 to 2030. Rising use of caramel in the food and beverages industry, particularly for bakery, confectionery, and beverage products, is the main factor driving the market. Changing consumer tastes, preferences, lifestyle, and incomes has played a key role in influencing F&B trends. Popularity of items such as salted caramel chocolates, caramel glazed muffins, and caramel lattes are driven by consumers and this poses as a lucrative opportunity for players.

On the basis of form, the market includes liquid, granular, and solid ingredients. Liquid ingredients held the largest share of just under 60.5% in 2024, fueled by extensive usage in the beverage industry for alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Based on end use, the confectionery segment enjoys the dominant share and is expected to account for a share of over 28.63% by 2030. Widespread consumption of caramel chocolates and candy bars across the globe is a key factor driving segment growth. The beverages segment, on the other hand, is projected to register the fastest growth by the end of the forecast period, with most soda and cola companies using this ingredient in their products.

By application, the caramel ingredients market has been segmented into coloring, topping, flavoring, and others. While coloring emerged as the dominant segment in terms of revenue, the topping segment is anticipated to witness the strongest growth over the forecast period. An increasing number of bakeries, confectionery stores, and coffee shops have been using caramel drizzles and toppings on their menu items. For instance, McDonald’s Canada released a new fall-themed beverage and muffin in August 2019. The Caramel Pumpkin Spice Latte is a play on the conventional autumn favorite and is topped off with a smooth caramel pumpkin spice syrup. What makes the Caramel Apple Oat Muffin a crowd-favorite is a crunchy caramelized glaze on top.

There are several key players operating in the market, such as Cargill, Inc.; Nestlé S.A.; Mars Inc.; Kerry Group; Ferrero SpA; Sensient Technologies Corporation; Goetze’s Candy Company, Inc.; Frito-Lay; DDW The Color House; Sethness-Roquette Caramel Color; Bakels Worldwide; Alvin Caramel Colours; and Metarom. Players have been investing in various expansion strategies in order to gain a larger customer base and to strengthen their foothold in the global market. For instance, in September 2018, Metarom rolled out its plans to capitalize on the strong growth in South East Asian markets, beginning with setting up a new sales unit in Malaysia. The company also plans to establish an independent factory close to Kuala Lumpur, which will include an R&D food tech lab and a flavor creation lab.
