Technological Advances and New Production Methods Boosting Rare Sugar Availability
Innovation in production technologies is a significant factor driving market growth. Companies are investing in rare sugar plants-specialized facilities that cultivate or produce rare sugars naturally found in limited amounts in select fruits, vegetables, and plants. For example, in March 2023, US-based Bonumose, Inc., a food ingredient startup, began producing tagatose using a proprietary enzymatic method that converts plant-based starches into this low-calorie sugar alternative. Tagatose delivers about 92% of the sweetness of regular sugar but contains only 38% of the calories. This new production capability aims to satisfy the growing demand for healthier sweeteners across the food and beverage sectors, backed by strategic partnerships with major players such as Hershey and ASR Group.
