Increasing consumer preferences towards healthy ingredients is a major driver for the organic bakery product market. Growing urbanization is leading to hectic lifestyles and unhealthy eating options, which have resulted in lifestyle disorders and a deterioration of health for consumers. Thus, changing consumer preferences are forcing manufacturers to switch to the use of organic ingredients such as organic baking powder, gluten-free powder, and aluminum-free baking powder. Moreover, the rising disposable income of the population is expected to contribute to the higher demand for organic bakery products in the near future. According to Trading Economics, the US-based financial service provider, the disposable personal income in India increased to Rs 23,85,73,760 million in the year 2021 from Rs 19,96,89,740 in the year 2020.
