Enzyme Manufacturing Companies Seeing Skyrocketing Growth in Plant-Based Dairy Specialty Enzymes
The global market for plant-based foods is exploding as people are interested in alternatives to animal products. In fact, in 2021 grocery sales of plant-based foods that directly replaced animal products grew 27 percent, reaching $7 billion.
Dairy Stands Out in This Growing Plant-Based Market
When you go to the supermarket the plant-based foods section is constantly expanding. This is especially true in regards to plant-based dairy products. Did you know that plant-based milk alone accounts for 35% of the total plant-based food market. When looking at 2021 US Retail Sales, it’s clear that plant-based milk drives growth for the entire milk category, which is valued at $2.6 billion; plant-based milk dollar share of this total is 16%
It’s no surprise that plant-based cheese, yogurt, creamer and butter sales are also on the rise. As pictured in the chart below, plant-based creamer showed a whopping sales growth of 33%.
The Taste of Your Plant-Based Product is Key for Success
Research shows that taste is the driving factor with US consumers when choosing plant-based products. This is followed by health, and then by environmental impact and finally animal welfare. Enzyme manufacturing companies are essential to the creation of quality plant-based foods. Amano enzymes can help you be successful in this growing industry, as we specialize in making plant-based dairy taste and perform like the real thing!
Our CheeseMaxᵀᵐPB makes plant-based cheese which is satisfyingly melty and stretchy. Current plant-based cheese products tend to be low in protein, as texture is a major challenge for high protein plant-based cheese. With our specialty enzyme, CheeseMaxᵀᵐPB, you can make plant-based cheese without compromising on the protein content. This specialty enzyme works by hydrolyzing plant-based proteins to create a creamier texture and robust flavor. It also improves melting at higher temperatures, which is what a person wants when using a plant-based cheese on pizza!
