Desserts insights
Desserts are a fantastic way of ending a meal on a high and can be a real talking point. Desserts provide the opportunity to experiment with new flavour combinations as well as offering traditional, well-loved classics. We’ve pulled together the top insights to what really impacts a consumers decision when it comes to choosing whether to have a dessert or not.
What a treat
70% of consumers’ main reason to eat out of home is to treat themselves, therefore more likely to make the most of the occasion and enjoy a dessert*
Curious cravings
