From the rise of plant-based indulgence to AI-driven product development and eco-friendly packaging, the ice cream & desserts industry is in the middle of a radical transformation.
Consumer expectations are shifting — they want guilt-free treats, faster delivery, and brands that care about the planet. For global food manufacturers, this means innovation can no longer be limited to flavors; it’s about rethinking ingredients, experiences, and delivery models.
With more than 100 patents, 500 ice cream scientists, and one of the world’s most advanced cold-chain systems, Unilever is not just following trends — it’s creating them.
And no one has embraced this change quite like Unilever.
