Taste the 2026 Trends

Stay ahead of this year’s key consumer preferences. Tap the trend for a sneak peek at the Exhibit Hall. 

Once-niche flavor profiles like “swicy” and pickle are now as commonplace as BBQ or Nacho Cheese, pushing brands to pack even more punch in their products if they want to raise eyebrows. To deliver this “high-definition” experience, makers are layering complex, culinary-inspired flavor profiles into unexpected categories.

Explore SenseMaxxing Exhibitors

Brands are embracing age-old processes in the creation and marketing of their products, as consumer interest in the related health benefits spikes (and their willingness to spend more follows). Slow-cooking, churning, steeping, and other mindful culinary processes are highlighted for their ability to heal over time, not as a quick fix.

Explore Rooted Rituals Exhibitors

A pizza can just be a pizza. Though there’s a place for “better for you,” not everything needs optimization. Gluten, sugar, and meat all are seeing a resurgence as shoppers gravitate towards “nostalgic and traditional” options that show that during tumultuous times, satisfaction can drive loyalty through its sense of comfort and familiarity.

Explore Honest Processing Exhibitors

Sized-down versions of snacks, desserts, and meals are trending in both resealable multi-serve and single-serve packs. From mini churros to tiny salads, consumers are gravitating toward “cute” products that allow for mindful indulgence without sacrificing the fun and pleasure of eating.

Explore Appetite Reset Exhibitors

Citrus is getting subtle upgrades with orange, lime and lemon being swapped for yuzu, calamansi, or bergamot. It’s not about chasing global flavors or fusion for novelty’s sake; it’s about enhancing what’s already known in order in more incremental ways to create a premium yet approachable product.

Explore Promiscuous Palate Exhibitors

Packaging doesn’t have to be Pinterest-perfect to attract design-minded customers. With simple line drawings, neon logos, or a “gas-station aesthetic,” a new wave of edgy and imperfect packaging is resonating with shoppers.
