Moving on from incremental improvements in Health and Wellness snacking, complete re-imagination of formulas is required to keep the attention of a more educated consumer.
Consumers are seeking snacking options that offer clear purpose. Rather than single ingredient elimination (HFCS-FREE, ALL NATURAL COLORS AND FLAVORS, ETC), consumers are searching more and more for convenient snacking options that cover, in a larger sense, nutritional profile. Does the product have healthy proteins and fats included means much more to consumers in 2020 than eliminating one ingredient for advertising purposes did in 2015, for instance.
With that in mind, Stewart Ingredient Systems continues to stay on the cutting edge of product development inside snacking categories. As a product developer and a manufacturer, SIS is well positioned to co-develop on these high-protein, potentially fatted formulas that attack health and wellness from a more wholistic approach that consumers are striving for in 2020 and beyond.

“The landscape for prepared foods has been changing rapidly over the past decade, due largely to changes in consumer perception about the healthfulness, nutritional value, safety, and sustainability of prepared foods”. Prepared Foods Magazine, February 2019
Increasingly, consumers are motivated to reduce or eliminate sugar and/or consume alternate natural sweeteners.
