Market Overview:

Chocolate is classified by the amount of cocoa it contains. Milk chocolates’ share is about 50% of all chocolate consumption but they contain as little as 10% cocoa. On the other hand, chocolate is considered as “dark chocolate” if it has more than 60% cocoa in it.

The cocoa and chocolate market has been growing at a decent pace. Strong demand from United States is propelling the cocoa and chocolate market in the region. Cocoa provides colour, texture and flavour to products. Furthermore, it has anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-depressant properties. The market for these ingredients is growing in developing economies such as China and India. Dark chocolate especially contains high amounts of antioxidants, which are believed to prevent certain types of diseases like Cardiac arrest. Health benefits like these, perceived by certain people and doctors, have been the leading reason behind growth for products with high quantities of cocoa.

Powerful growth in demand is unevenly matched against an unstable and unpredictable supply. But chocolate consumers are quite price insensitive. Except in some rare circumstances consumers are ready to purchase cocoa product at any price. The huge demand for chocolate and cocoa in confectionery and food and beverage industries majorly drives the market. The health benefits of cocoa and chocolate in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics has enough evidence to back manufacturers to consider using such ingredients.
