Therefore, the demand for mozzarella is significantly high in countries where Italian cuisine is increasingly popular. The cashew source segment captured the largest revenue share in 2021. Cashew-based cheese contains low fat and vitamin B2 and B12. This makes it favorable among health-conscious consumers all over the world. Furthermore, gluten-free and cholesterol-free cashew products are gaining traction owing to their health benefits.

The B2C end-use segment led the market in 2021. Increased consumer disposable income and willingness to spend on premium products have led to a rise in the demand for plant-based cheese in the household segment. The market for vegan cheese has a large number of regional and international players. These manufacturing companies have been launching new products across the globe owing to the rising demand for vegan products among vegetarian, vegan, and health-conscious consumers.
