The Food Network culinary team predicts eight major food trends for 2025, reflecting shifts in consumer preferences, technological advancements, and cultural influences:

  • Novel Freeze-Dried Treats
    Freeze-dried candies like gummy bears and cheesecake bites are gaining popularity due to advancements in freeze-drying technology, which enhances flavor and crunch while keeping treats affordable and fun.
  • AI and Grocery Shopping
    AI is revolutionizing grocery shopping. Features like AI-powered smart carts and personalized search results from major retailers like Walmart and Instacart are making the experience more efficient and interactive.
  • Calamansi in Cuisine
    This Filipino lime is making waves in both supermarkets and upscale dining, becoming a favorite for its tart, citrusy flavor. From desserts to beverages, expect calamansi to feature prominently in 2025.
  • One-Trick Appliances
    Compact, single-purpose gadgets like the Ninja Creami and Dash Mini Waffle Maker are trending as consumers seek affordable, joyful items to elevate their kitchens amid inflation.
  • Nutrient-Dense Eating
    With the rise of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, there’s a demand for smaller, nutrient-rich meals and snacks. Brands like Nestle and Daily Harvest are launching tailored lines for these consumers.
  • Plant-Based Deli Meats
    While plant-based meat sales have slowed, deli options like Prime Roots’ koji-based products are gaining traction due to their clean labels and premium positioning.
  • Cookbook Clubs
    Cookbook clubs, where members cook and share dishes from a chosen book, are booming as people seek in-person connections over shared meals, offering an antidote to digital isolation.
  • Brain Food for Kids
    Children’s food brands are focusing on developmental benefits, with products touting brain-boosting nutrients reflecting the rise of "intensive parenting."
