The linguine and pappardelle-style cauliflower pastas boast 48% more fiber than traditional pasta, as well as half the amount of sugar as seen in leading gluten-free offerings. Free from artificial colors, flavors and preservatives, Caulipower Cauliflower Pasta sets itself apart as an option that's said to "[taste] just like fresh pasta, with fewer calories than any other on the market — fresh, frozen, or dry," according to Caulipower founder and CEO Gail Becker. While there are plenty of shelf-stable pasta products that are enriched with vegetables, including cruciferous ones like cauliflower, this one stands out for infusing freshness into the frozen pasta category. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 18% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 10% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cauliflower Pasta:** Cauliflower-based pasta is gaining momentum in the frozen food industry, offering a healthier and tastier option as compared to traditional pasta. - **Gluten-free:** Gluten-free products continue to grow in popularity, pushing food companies to create innovative substitutes and alternatives. - **High Fiber Foods:** The demand for high-fiber foods is on the rise, leading to the creation and promotion of products with higher fiber content. ### Who This Affects Most - **Frozen Foods:** Cauliflower pasta is a disruptive innovation opportunity in the frozen food industry, offering a healthier and more diverse range of options. - **Gluten-free Products:** Gluten-free pasta alternatives are becoming more mainstream, creating opportunities for growth in the gluten-free products industry. - **Health Food:** The health food industry is seeing a surge in demand for nutritious and flavorful options, providing an opportunity for cauliflower pasta and similar products to capture a larger market share. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cauilflower-Based Frozen Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegetable-based-pastas.md) - [Three-Ingredient Veggie Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veggie-pasta.md) - [Cauliflower-Based Food Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caulipower-1.md) - [Cauliflower-Based Ravioli Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gluten-free-cheese-ravioli.md) - [Fiber-Rich Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodwheat.md) - [High-Protein Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-protein-pasta.md) - [Bean-Powered Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fava-bean-pasta.md) - [Free-From Protein Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highprotein-pasta.md) - [Gluten-Free White Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gluten-free-white-pizza.md)
