The Global Gluten-free Baking Mixes Market size is expected to reach $623.9 Million by 2027, rising at a market growth of 7.2% CAGR during the forecast period. The pre-mixed combination of gluten-free ingredients for cooking baked goods is known as gluten free baking mix. These mixes are made for the preparation of various food items like cakes, bread, muffins, brownies, cookies, pizzas, biscuits, and others. In addition, these gluten-free baking mixes mostly comprise corn-based ingredients, nut flour, powdered dairy milk, and others, which help in fulfilling the nutritional and biological requirements of people.
Nowadays, consumers are more inclining towards healthy food items than food products containing preservatives, artificial sweeteners, and artificial ingredients. Due to this, manufacturers have restricted themselves to produce food items, which do not have any sort of artificial ingredients and preservatives. So, they are manufacturing organic & gluten-free baking mixes, which are gaining more popularity. The gluten-free baking mixes are healthy substitutes for traditional baking mixes. Additionally, Gluten-free baking mixes help in preventing any health issues such as diarrhea or bloating as they do not become fermented by the intestinal bacteria.
