Veganism has gained significant momentum in recent years. Consumers are highly inclined toward plant-based products as they perceive them to be healthier than conventional products. Further, increasing awareness regarding animal protection and environment sustainability increase the popularity of vegan food products. The proliferation of veganism among people is highly influencing innovations in the ice cream market. Veganuary, a nonprofit organization, encourages people to become vegan for the whole month of January. Registrations for the Veganuary Campaign have increased dramatically over the past few years. Thus, due to the flourishing trend of veganism, ice cream manufacturers are launching plant-based products. Vegan ice creams help improve digestion, strengthen the functioning of the immunity system, and improve blood pressure. Therefore, the growing inclination toward plant-based food products due to the growing popularity of veganism is expected to bring new trends to the ice cream market during the forecast period.
Vendors in the ice cream market can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets by offering products with new features and technologies. This factor is likely to drive the APAC ice cream market at a good CAGR during the forecast period.

At 5.3% CAGR, the APAC Ice Cream Market is speculated to be worth US$ 37,290.76 million by 2028, says The Insight Partners
According to The Insight Partners’ research, the APAC ice cream market was valued at US$ 27,289.30 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 37,290.76 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 5.3% from 2022 to 2028. Rising popularity of functional ice cream and increasing trend of consuming dairy-free and vegan ice cream are the critical factors attributed to the market expansion.
Functional ice cream has become a popular product among health-conscious consumers due to the presence of high-quality ingredients, and it fulfills consumers’ nutritional requirements more than regular ice cream. Traditional ice cream contains nutritional properties and various health benefits. So, the increasing interest of ice cream manufacturers in fortification and the addition of functional ingredients may influence the consumer’s decision to select a healthy alternative. Beyond basic nutrition, functional food provides advantages that can help lower or prevent the risk of certain diseases. Moreover, sugar-free, low-fat functional ice creams are gaining huge popularity due to their health benefits. The COVID-19 pandemic further influenced the demand for functional ice cream, and manufacturers are taking advantage of this opportunity. Low-sugar and high-protein ice cream have become especially popular with athletes and consumers looking for non-staple food and beverage products with better nutritional content. The popularity of functional ice cream is majorly driven by product innovations, especially in terms of taste profile and nutritional value. The rise in demand for functional ice cream is expected to create lucrative growth opportunities in the ice cream market across the region.
