Condensed Gourmet

Miniature culinary goods provide luxury without breaking the bank

Implications - The post-credit crunch desire to communicate prestige, combined with the rise of foodie culture, has put gourmet food in the spotlight. Some consumers, however, are not willing to spend what is required to enjoy these culinary goods. Thus, a demand for miniature gourmet foods can be observed, allowing consumers to enjoy a compromise.
Trend Themes
1. Miniature Gourmet - The demand for miniature gourmet food products gives consumers the chance to enjoy them without having to pay premium prices.
2. Snack-sized Treats - Consumers are looking for snack-sized treats that satisfy cravings and can be shared with family and friends.
3. Edible Versions of Popular Beverages - Creating edible versions of popular beverages like latte-inspired cupcakes can attract those looking for a different kind of snack.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage Industry - There is an opportunity for businesses in the food industry to create miniature and snack-sized gourmet products or edible versions of popular beverages.
2. Cafe Industry - Niche cafes that serve a single, original gourmet creation in a variety of flavors can attract customers looking for unique experiences.
3. Fast Food Industry - Fast food chains can offer snack-sized options alongside traditional entrees like the Cinnamon Pull-Aparts at Papa John's.
