Edible cutlery refers to the consumable tableware that can be used as a sustainable and environment-friendly substitute for plastic utensils. Some of the commonly available edible cutlery includes spoons, forks, knives, sporks, straws, plates, bowls and glasses. They are manufactured using safe-to-eat plant-based materials, such as rice, wheat, corn and sorghum. The plates and bowls are usually produced using large cabbage and banana leaves for enhanced durability. Edible cutlery is also enriched with various essential nutrients, including fiber, protein, calcium and iron and is available in a wide variety of sweet and savory flavors, such as chocolate, strawberry, vanilla, sweet chilly and cream. In comparison to the traditionally used plastic utensils, edible cutlery is biodegradable, highly functional and cost-effective.
Significant growth in the food and beverage industry is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the rising environmental consciousness among the masses is providing a thrust to the market growth. Due to the rising pollution levels caused by plastics, there is a shifting consumer preference toward edible cutleries. Quick service restaurants (QSRs) and cafes are also adopting the product to minimize food and packaging material wastage and enhance cost-efficiency. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the development of edible cutlery with natural and organic multigrain flours fortified with additional flavors and nutrients, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. Product manufacturers are also launching sugar- and gluten-free variants to cater to the requirements of health-conscious consumers. Other factors, including the increasing adoption of vegan dietary habits among the masses, along with the implementation of favorable government policies promoting the use of sustainable products, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
