Keynote Speech
Redefining Functional Snacks

At the Functional Snack Seminar
This presentation focuses on the trend of health‑oriented upgrades in Southeast Asia’s snack market, addressing key industry challenges such as the common issues of sticky texture, diminished flavor, and nutritional imbalances in low‑sugar formulations. Drawing on real‑world examples of localized recipe development, Newtrend will demonstrate how strategic sweetener system design, texture optimization, and nutrient‑fortification techniques can achieve sugar reduction while restoring premium snack mouthfeel and enhancing nutritional value—delivering a comprehensive, scalable formulation‑optimization solution tailored to the Southeast Asian market. Following the talk, an interactive Q&A session will be held, inviting attendees—including business partners and R&D engineers—to share insights and tackle formulation challenges.
The five core ingredients are in place.
