Maple-Flavored Syrups

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lakanto's Sugar-Free Maple Syrup Alternative is Made with Monk Fruit

— July 24, 2018 — Lifestyle
As an alternative to maple syrup, Lakanto produces a Maple-Flavored Syrup that's free from sugar and friendly to a variety of different lifestyles—including ketogenic, diabetic, Paleo, vegan, low-carb, low-sugar and all-natural.

The product is said to taste, smell and look like real maple syrup, so it has the potential to be used as a stand-in for the ingredient in everything from baking to sweetening snacks and beverages.

Many health-conscious consumers have started to revamp their diets with a focus on condiments, as many contain unhealthy additives and excessive amounts of sugar. As such, many brands are now launching alternative and better-for-you versions of some of the most comforting classics out there, including sweet syrups and savory sauces that are enjoyed during breakfast and beyond.
Trend Themes
1. Sugar-free Syrups - The rise of sugar-free syrups offers an opportunity for companies to cater to health-conscious consumers looking for alternative sweeteners.
2. Health-conscious Condiments - The demand for healthier condiments opens up opportunities for brands to create alternative versions of classic products with reduced sugar and additives.
3. Alternative Sweeteners - The market for alternative sweeteners, such as maple-flavored syrups made with monk fruit, presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to offer sugar-free options with similar taste and functionality.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - The food and beverage industry can capitalize on the trend of sugar-free syrups and alternative sweeteners by introducing new products and expanding their offerings for health-conscious consumers.
2. Health and Wellness - The health and wellness industry can tap into the demand for healthier condiments by developing and promoting alternative versions of classic products that align with different dietary needs and preferences.
3. Natural Ingredients - The natural ingredients industry can explore the use of monk fruit and other alternative sweeteners to provide companies with innovative solutions for creating natural and sugar-free products.
