Frozen Cake and Pastry Manufacturing in Australia

Operators in the Frozen Cake and Pastry Manufacturing industry have faced numerous challenges over the past five years. Changing consumer dietary and lifestyle trends have worked against the industry, as some consumers have cut back on high-calorie foods such as cakes and pastries in favour of healthier snack and dessert alternatives. Other consumers have moved away from factory-produced frozen pies and pastries in favour of fresh, unpackaged products. In addition, the growing popularity of private label products, which are prevalent across many food manufacturing industries, represents a major threat to the industry.
