The maple syrup market stands to benefit from the increased consumption of baked goods. From bread to sweet treats like cakes and cookies, these food items are typically made from baked dough or batter. Infusing these items with maple syrup offers a unique depth of flavor and inherent sweetness. Its use can range from simple flavoring to the main sweetening ingredient, adding a cozy, multifaceted taste that makes the baked goods even more delightful and fostering the expansion of the maple syrup market. Recent data from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, a governmental arm, in November 2022 shows that global retail sales of baked goods saw a surge to $425.7 billion in 2022 from its previous $407.2 billion in 2021. Accordingly, the mounting demand for baked goods is the prime force behind the escalating growth of the maple syrup market.
