In recent years, the gluten-free pastry market has shown steady growth, driven by increasingly informed and demanding consumers. Today, those who choose pastry products are not only looking for great taste but also for healthier options tailored to specific dietary needs.

According to a study by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA), demand for gluten-free products in Spain increased by 2.6% in 2024 compared to the previous year.


Magdalena, sponge cakes, croissants, napolitanas, doughnuts, and muffins are among the most in-demand products. Some remain popular as traditional breakfast or snack staples, while others stand out for their indulgent appeal and relevance in occasional consumption moments.


Achieving the texture, fluffiness, and flavour of traditional pastries without using gluten requires innovative formulations and deep technical knowledge of alternative ingredients.

That’s why we elaborated customized food solutions for the fresh and frozen gluten-free pastry sector, meeting the highest market standards in both taste and functionality.
