Changing consumer trends, volatile commodity prices and a saturated market characterise the Cake and Pastry Manufacturing industry. Intensifying competitive pressures have also posed serious challenges for cake and pastry manufacturers. Supermarkets have extended their private-label offerings in their ongoing foray into the fresh food market. Consumers have moved towards artisanal and gourmet foods, elevating from retail bakeries and threatening branded industry manufacturers. Due to rising health consciousness, downstream consumers have also moved away from factory-produced, pre-packaged baked goods that supermarkets sell, instead favouring fresh, artisanal alternatives sold in rival outlets. Industry firms manufacture cakes, pastries and similar bakery products, including frozen products, from either a factory-based premises or home.
