Chocolate-covered snacks have been a “dark horse” in the snack food industry in recent years with their innovative flavor and diversified forms. This series, from chocolate-covered nuts to candies, not only retains the fun of conventional snacks, but also achieves quality upgrading with chocolate as a carrier. The following is an analysis of the core trends in the current market and how Jixiangguoseizes opportunities to provide consumers and partners with high-quality solutions.
Market Trends of Chocolate-Covered Snacks: Health, Fun and Channel Changes
Healthy Needs Drive Product Upgrades
Increasingly, consumers are paying attention to the health attributes of snacks, and low-sugar, high-fiber, high-cocoa chocolate foods are de rigueur. Dark chocolate, for example, is rich in antioxidants and its market share continues to grow. It is considered to be a representative of “healthy snacks.” Jixiangguo’s chocolate-covered sunflower seeds, peanuts and other nuts products not only retain the natural nutrition of nuts, but also meet the low-sugar demand through high-purity dark chocolate coating, which is in line with the trend of health.
Fun and Scene Innovation
Young consumers’ curiosity about snacks drives the diversification of flavors and forms. For example, cross-border products such as “spicy sticks flavored sunflower seeds” and “durian flavored chocolate” have sparked heated discussions on social media. The chocolate-covered popping candy and gummy candy products launched by Jixiangguo have successfully attracted young people through taste contrast (such as the combination of crispy chocolate shell and bursting popping candy), and have become the “social currency” of gatherings and festivals.
Online Channels and Personalized Customization
The rise of e-commerce platforms and social e-commerce has reshaped the snack consumption model. Through B2B cooperation and customized services, Jixiangguo provides brand customers with exclusive packaging design and flavor blending (such as matcha, strawberry filling, etc.), helping partners to achieve differentiated competition in e-commerce channels.
The Rise and High-endization of Local Brands
Although foreign brands still dominate the market, local brands are rising rapidly with accurate insights into local needs. For example, Daily Black Chocolate opens the market with the concept of “sugar-free and healthy”. Jixiangguo focuses on the mid-to-high-end market, uses imported cocoa raw materials and low-temperature baking technology, and launches a series of chocolate crisp balls with high cocoa content (more than 70%), taking into account both quality and cost-effectiveness.
Challenges and Coping Strategies
Homogeneous competition: A large number of products on the market are concentrated in traditional flavors (such as milk chocolate), and technological innovation (such as adding probiotics and dietary fiber) is needed to increase added value.
Cost pressure: The price fluctuations of cocoa beans and the increase in packaging costs require companies to optimize supply chain management. Jixiangguo reduces costs through large-scale procurement and automated production to ensure price competitiveness.
Consumption scenario expansion: Chocolate-covered snacks need to break through the single scenario of “casual snacks” and extend to gifts, baking ingredients and other fields. For example, Jixiangguo’s chocolate peanuts can be used as baking ingredients, or develop holiday gift boxes to increase premium space.
