Under its Press'd line, [DreamPak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caloriefree-dessert-sauces) revealed Ultimate Concentrated Coffee, a shelf-stable liquid mix that's touted as the most concentrated coffee on the market. The 50 times coffee concentration means that "one part concentrate is diluted with fifty parts water when preparing the finished beverage." The small container offers more servings and value per container since a [single eight-ounce bottle offers 50 servings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/singleserve-coffee-concentrate) of premium coffee for just a few cents per serving.

The [super-concentrated coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/espresso-concentrates) is spill-proof and packaged in plastic bottles to avoid breakage. Thanks to its unique form, the product's syrup-like consistency, it can be used for a variety of applications when baking, cooking with marinades and even topping snacks and desserts like ice cream or yogurt.
