# Banana-Based Baking Mixes Zuvii's Organic Mixes for Baking are Formulated with Banana Flour By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2017-03-16 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mixes-for-baking References: [zuvii](http://zuvii.com/products/zuvii-pancake-and-waffle-mix/) Zuvii makes a range of mixes for baking everything from cake and brownies to pancakes and waffles, which set themselves apart as non-GMO, organic and gluten-free mixes. This is because, as the front of the standing pouch packages describe, they are all made with a base of "unripe green banana flour." To prepare a variety of delicious treats with these mixes for baking, it's as simple as adding a few ingredients like eggs, vegetable oil, and milk or water, in the same way as most ordinary baking mixes are prepared. However, consumers will enjoy feeling good about the treats that they make using a healthier substitute for white or even whole wheat flour. As well as incorporating its Banana Flour into its Cake, Brownie and [Pancake and Waffle Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/einkorn-pancake-and-waffle-mix), Zuvii also sells this non-GMO, [gluten-free flour](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gluten-free-oat-flour) on its own. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Organic Baking Mixes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop organic baking mixes using alternative flours like banana flour. - **Gluten-free Baking:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create gluten-free baking mixes for health-conscious consumers seeking alternative flour options. - **Non-gmo Food Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Produce non-GMO baking mixes to cater to the growing demand for genetically modified organism-free food options. ### Where This Applies - **Food Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate banana flour into baking mixes as a healthier alternative to traditional flours in the food manufacturing industry. - **Health Food Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Stock and promote organic, gluten-free baking mixes to cater to health-conscious consumers in health food retail. - **Alternative Flour Production:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Produce and market alternative flours like banana flour as a replacement for traditional wheat flours in the alternative flour production industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Upcycled Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upcycled-baking.md) - [Farmer-Supporting Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gluten-free-baking-mixes.md) - [Nutritious Pancake Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nutritious-pancake-mix.md) - [Better-for-You Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-bread-mix.md) - [Health-Focused Plant-Based Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantbased-baking-mix.md) - [Peanut Flour Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pb2-pantry.md) - [Ricebread Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ricebread.md) - [Konjac-Powered Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/better-for-you-baking-mixes.md) - [Upcycled Baking Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bake-me-healthy.md)
