Milk Yogurt and Yogurt Drinks

Milk, Yogurt, and Yogurt Drinks

In recent years, the dairy category has received competition from plant-based milk alternatives. However, with a myriad of dairy and non-dairy milk products available, consumers are experimenting. According to Mintel, over a third (38%) are dual dairy-type consumers, while only 7% are non-dairy exclusive consumers. Dairy and plant-based dairy alternatives share shelf space with dairy flavors across applications.

According to Circana, milk sales reached $19.6 billion, down 1.2%, for the 52 weeks ending August 11, 2024. For the same period, yogurt experienced a resurgence. The overall yogurt category saw U.S. sales rise 6.5% to $10.8 billion. Sales of dairy yogurt climbed 6.8% to $9.2 billion, and dairy yogurt drinks were up 7.3% to $1.4 billion, according to Circana. As dairy flavoring specialists, Trilogy enhances the dairy category with a portfolio of dairy flavors for milk and yogurt applications. Our extensive portfolio ranges from natural fruit flavor blends such as berries and exotic fruits to dessert-inspired flavors like chocolate truffle and cinnamon roll. Our dairy flavors are available in water-dispersible or water-soluble forms.

Hard and Soft Cheeses

Cheese is a beloved global household staple. According to Circana, natural cheese sales reached $20.6 billion, a 3% increase year over year for the 52 weeks ending January 26, 2025. Dollar sales for the processed cheese category were $3.6 billion, down 2% for the same period.

Within dairy flavoring, Trilogy’s dairy flavor chemists create delicious cheese flavors that range from popular to trendsetting. For example, Trilogy offers dill, roasted garlic, and onion as well as black truffle, chipotle, and jalapeno flavors. Depending on the flavor, our leading-edge cheese profiles are oil-soluble or water-dispersible for use in hard and soft cheeses. Trilogy’s products offer a more consistent flavor throughout each cheese product.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream. Ice cream is a go-to nostalgic, comfort food that brings generations of all ages joy. According to Circana, ice cream/sherbet sales achieved $8.6 billion, up 3% year over year, while frozen novelty sales reached $8.74 billion, up 1%, for the 52 weeks ending August 11, 2024.

Dairy flavoring includes ice cream, frozen dairy desserts, milkshakes, and smoothies.

Do your flavors work in both dairy and plant-based applications?

Are your flavors clean-label or natural?
