Flavour your products toostrongly and you could put off faithfulconsumers. However, offer subtle andinteresting flavours, perhaps even exoticor unusual tastes and you could improvea product tenfold. Ginger is a current ingredient peopleare finding new uses for. A traditionalingredient for a whole host of dishesacross Asia, the west is now using itmore and more. The confectioneryindustry has used the fragrant and fieryroot in a range of products recently andits anti-oxidant properties mean it iscreeping into more products offeringhealth benefits too. The huge boom inhealth drinks, including energy drinksand relaxation-geared products whichoften include the ingredient as a baseelement, prove it is an ingredient that ison-trend.An organic return?An unexpected increase in organicingredients also points to a more health-conscious consumer trend. The firstincrease since 2007 has been reported byseveral importers and exporters, withproduce like lentils, nuts and berries, riceand peas and dehydrated vegetables aswell as syrups, honeys and fruitconcentrates proving popular. Theorganic market is also predicted tosteadily grow over the next few years,with figures being quoted as much as11.8% from now until 2018, which couldprove to be positive for some. This new trend seems to be frommanufacturers launching organicalternatives alongside their regularproducts, but also the emergence of brandnew organic companies. The health snacksmarket certainly must have something todo with this, the rise of the food to-gomarket and a busier workforce meansconvenient, yet healthy food and drinkoptions have become more appealing. This has been punctuated by theincreased presence of trade exhibitions onthe subject becoming more popular, theSpeciality and Fine Food Show andlunch! in particular growing in attendanceand exhibitor numbers year on year. Withlunch! especially, the clamour of interestsurrounding organically-rich snacks anddrink products offering added value forconsumers is tangible. With a rise inspecialist delis and health shops too, it isperhaps one of the most encouragingareas of our industry at the moment.Natural ingredients, rather than esotericspecialities, seem to be feeding this boom,but the healthier alternatives certainlyhave their part to play as well. Organic ingredients are seeing arise in popularity asmanufacturers launch newproducts and organic start-upshave blossomed.JustIngredientsQUALITY RELIABILITY & CONTINUITYSuperfoods lCulinary Herbs and Spices lOrganics lBotanical Herbs lOils, Flowers and more lFairtradeIngredients to suit your needsVisit our web site and order onlinewww.justingredients.co.uk38-43:Layout 1 17/9/12 10:04 Page 3Sodium reduction solutions~CPbcTT]WP]RT\T]c~D_c^' b^SXd\aTSdRcX^]~2[TP];PQT[~7XVWX^]XRbcaT]VcW0f~<d[cX _a^RTbbR^\_PcXQX[Xch~ U^a bdQbcXcdcX^]U^abP[ctaste, sodiumcontact@lactosalt.frfff [PRc^bP[c R^\www.armor-proteines.comDairy INGREDIENTS & SOLUTIONSPlease visit us atHIE 201213 - 15 Novembre 2012Hall 3 Stand E61INGREDIENTS SPOTLIGHTwww.fdiforum.net41The GNT Group operates worldwide through its subsidiaries inEurope, Asia and the USA; offering two brands, EXBERRYColouring Foods and Nutrifood, The Best of Fruits andVegetables.

It contributes abouta third of the nation’s annualGDP and accounts for 8% ofthe national GDP for aproduction of more than €5.4billion and releases €1.6 billionof added value.This industry is in continuous growththanks to the important demand fromboth domestic and export markets. Thisis explained primarily by major changesin the nation’s food and drink sector,inducing an improvement of the level ofnational consumption, though it remainsrelatively low compared to othercountries with the same economic level.The sector exports only 17% of itsproduction because of the particulardifficulties of satisfying quality criteriaand the medical requirements of theimporting countries.This explains why Morocco has openedits doors to increase import and exportinterest.
