The Future of Cooking Sauces

Cooking and pasta sauce brands need to target younger adults, whose interest in using cooking sauces lags behind that of older consumers. A greater focus on flavor and BFY innovation will get younger adults cooking more often. Inflationary pressures will see to demands for sustainability, which are placed at the forefront of consumers’ purchasing decisions. Brands will have to be just as serious by innovating more with both international and regional flavors in tandem with BFY and sustainable options
