Hot desserts are now in growth, with £2.6m added to the category. Shoppers are buying more frequently, and average prices are up 1.8%, although price rises are well behind the 2.9% seen in the wider market.
Aldi and Co-op had the strongest growth. The more premium retailers, Waitrose and Marks & Spencer, saw the biggest over-trades compared with overall grocery share, driven by the older shopper profile of these retailers.
Own-label lines have taken more share from brands this year, with around 59% of sales and 48% of packs in the category. Own-label growth came mainly from pies, tarts & flans, with Aldi the key contributor, showing around 39% growth in sales.
NPD in general within hot desserts is down 14.5% and own label still takes the majority of sales through NPD. Pies, tarts & flans and chilled pancakes & crêpes are driving successful innovation with the most NPD sales growth. This reflects the growing foodservice trend of pancakes for brunch with younger consumers.
