As per our analysis report, the global Ultra Pasteurized Cream Market is expected to reach USD 10.38 billion by 2029 from USD 8.53 billion in 2024, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.01 % during the forecast timeline. The increase in awareness about microbial spoilage and the rise in demand for longer shelf-life dairy products drive the market share. Europe is expected to have a large market share owing to the increasing trend for plant-based dairy product alternatives.
The driving demand for shelf-stable dairy products drives the growth of the ultra-pasteurized cream market during the forecast period. Among the consumers, there is an increase in awareness about the microbial spoilage of dairy products. People are more willing to purchase milk products that are less susceptible to such spoilage. Ultra-heat pasteurization treatment ensures the removal of almost all pathogens from dairy products, which increases their shelf life. The low risk of spoilage and longer shelf life are the key market drivers that promote the growth of the market. The food services and bakery sectors are driving the demand for shelf-stable dairy creams, thereby fueling market expansion.
There is an expected increase in the application of ultra-pasteurized creams in cafes and quick-service restaurants. This propels the growth of the ultra-pasteurized cream market. The changing consumer preferences and increase in the demand for cafes are raising the demand for fresh, whipped, and heavy creams at present. In South Asian regions, quick-service restaurants and cafes are the fastest growing in the food service sector. In the Asia-Pacific region, a large number of tea and coffee are consumed outside the home every day. This rising demand has facilitated the rising demand for coffee shops, teahouses, kiosks, and desert houses in Southeast Asia, which is favorable for the growth of the market. The addition of Ultra-pasteurized cream to coffee, cakes, pastries, and some other bakery products will add a great flavor to the product. Developing countries like India and China in the South Asian region are key elements in propelling the demand for ultra-pasteurized cream in this region and further driving the market growth.
The major restraints to the Ultra-Pasteurized cream market are changes in taste and flavor of cream due to the use of this technology hindering the market growth. A slightly cooked taste is observed in dairy products such as cream prepared using the ultra-heat treatment. Generally, taste and flavor are the key factors that add value to the cream as it is utilized in different varieties of beverages and desserts. The whipping ability and whipping time also vary with the method of treatment used; ultra-pasteurization negatively impacts these factors. The high cost, low flexibility, and adaptability of the ultra-heat treatment also hamper the market growth during the forecast period.
