Cocoa enhancers are compounds that are added to food and beverages to
supplement the natural cocoa flavor. Cocoa has a unique position in
the flavors industry due to its soft melt?in?the?mouth and unique
sensory properties. The cocoa aroma is contributed by various
compounds, including the non-volatile and volatile chemical
components. Various technological enhancements have been done to
enhance the cocoa flavor, combining chemical, physical and biological
factors of multiple cocoa alternatives. Cocoa enhancers are gaining
traction due to their use in healthy foods and specifically, among
children, who prefer chocolate to cocoa flavors.

Cocoa
enhancers are low-cost cocoa substitutes offering similar flavor,
quality and nutrition as that of cocoa. One of the biggest advantages
of Cocoa enhancers is that their thermal stability, strength and
flavor impact is identical to that of cocoa. Europe followed by North
America is projected to dominate the cocoa enhancers market, in terms
of consumption, due to higher concentration base of cocoa end-use
industries. Among various end-uses of cocoa enhancers, chocolate and
confectionery are projected to drive high demand for cocoa enhancers
over the forecast period. Chocolate processing is concentrated in
European countries, mainly the Netherlands, which will be a potential
country for the use of cocoa enhancers.
A
rise in demand for overall cocoa alternatives due to increasing cocoa
prices and fluctuating supply of cocoa annually is expected. Between
2010 and 17, world’s cocoa production grew at the rate of 0.99%,
while world cocoa grindings increased at the rate of 1.16%,
indicating a supply-demand gap for cocoa, which has compelled end-use
industries using cocoa as an ingredient to look for cocoa
alternatives, including cocoa enhancers. Africa holds nearly 72% of
world’s cocoa production share and indicates higher supply
concentration. This scenario also has encouraged distant countries to
utilize their existing natural and synthetic ingredients as cocoa
enhancers which are compatible with the intended product
applications.
Some
of the key players operating in the global Cocoa
Enhancers market are Chefs Flavours Ltd, Charkit Chemical,
PureCircle, Signature Flavors, Flavor Dynamics, Inc., Weber Flavors
and Taytonn, among others.
Changing
consumption patterns along with growing demand for cocoa alternatives
has opened opportunities for cocoa enhancers. This scenario has
encouraged various food and beverage ingredient companies to
introduce innovative products including cocoa enhancers to meet
consumer demand for cocoa flavor. Additionally, growing consumer
demand for lower-fat and low-sugar content ingredients for cocoa-end
use products will also have a positive impact on the cocoa enhancers
market.
