The increasing demand for sugar substitutes due to changing buyer’s perception and realization of energy imbalance between calorie consumption and calorie expenditure is anticipated to drive the market of stevia and sugar blends. This imbalance of food calorie is majorly caused due to high spending on processed food and beverages along with the sedentary lifestyle which has collectively led to a raised prevalence of lifestyle-related diseases and obesity.

Stevia is tremendously sweeter than regular sugar and it contains no calories, so it is suitable for diabetics and those with high blood pressure. Children can also enjoy it without health concerns and it does not cause tooth cavities. This herbal sweetener is heat stable and thus could be used for cooking and baking. Therefore, it is usually blended with other sweeteners, such as sugar to get the desired food quality of processed food products. The changing consumer’s opinion towards table sugar has resulted in many international companies expanding their portfolio of sugar-reduced and sugar-free options, which predicts well for the stevia sugar blends market. The prominent players operating in the market are embarking upon product launch, collaborations, and merger and acquisition activities to increase their market prominence. For instance, in April 2020, leading global plant-based ingredients provider Ingredion announced that it has acquired 75% controlling stake in pioneering stevia company PureCircle. This acquisition is anticipated to help Ingredion to strengthen their portfolio in stevia and stevia related products.

High sugar diets considerably affect rates of obesity and diabetes, therefore the pursuit of a natural sugar substitute that has few or no calories, does not affect blood glucose levels, and can be used in home-baked products has been underway for a long time which is expected to boost the demand for stevia sugar blends. The increasing consumer demand for a sweetener that can be used in cooking and baking, yet with reduced calories and carbohydrates is expected to drive the global market of stevia sugar blends. Consumers are conscious of the bitter or metallic taste that stevia imparts in a product so the popularity of stevia and sugar blend is increasing owing to its sweet taste and almost half calories compared to sugar. Moreover, the lack of negative impact of the sugar tax on low and no-calorie beverages is anticipated to boost the demand for stevia sugar blends from beverage manufacturers. The World Health Organization (WHO) is inspiring governments to control obesity among children by announcing sugar taxes on sugar-sweetened soft drinks. Nevertheless, producers' sales of low- and no-calorie beverages are not affected because of their no or very low sugar content which is anticipated to drive the demand for stevia sugar blends.

The high price of the product and increasing consumer shift towards another alternative of sugar such as jaggery and honey is anticipated to hamper the stevia sugar blends market growth. The low awareness about the product among consumers is anticipated to restrain the market growth.
