Rice Syrup Market Forecast to 2027 - COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis by Rice Type ; Category ; Application
NEW YORK, June 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The global rice syrup market was valued at US$ 635.8 million in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ 928.4 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2019 to 2027. Rice syrup is a processed form of cultured rice. The rice is fermented using beta and alpha amylase enzymes that break down the starch content into simple molecules of sugar such as glucose, maltose, and fructose. Owing to the presence of excessive concentration of starch, the rice syrup finds its application as sweeteners or sweet enhancers in food processing. However, the processing and refining processes hamper the nutritional value of this product. The market is driven by the wide application of rice syrup as an alternative sweetener. Rice syrup is available as a liquid nutritive sweetener solution. In addition, an upsurge in the popularity of organic rice syrup due to the growing health-consciousness among consumers also drives the market growth.
