Abstract

The cooking sauces sector comprises prepared mixes and blends for cooking meat and ingredients, cook-in sauces and pour-over sauces. Since 1997, the best-performing products continue to be ethnic recipes and pasta sauces. The food seasonings sector includes salt, pepper, spices and herbs. Mixes are driving the limited growth that has taken place in this sector.

The cooking sauces sector is well placed to benefit from wider trends in the food market for more convenient foods. Wealthier consumers and those with busier lifestyles continue to pursue easy meal options that require minimal kitchen time. The expanding range of sauces available also cater for the increasingly adventurous tastes of consumers, who are influenced by the cookery and travel media, to widen their eating experiences.

While established brands and products continue to lead the market, consumers are increasingly looking for more authentic eating experiences. This has provided growth opportunities for premium brands, as well as more expensive ranges, which offer more specialist regional recipes for example. Newer cuisines are also coming through into the mainstream market, such as African and Jamaican recipes. Initial entry points tend to be among smaller brands; however, the uptake by mainstream labels will be the indicator of success. This report covers the market.
