At the Summer Fancy Food Show, Coombs Family Farms introduced 'Maple Stream' as a first-of-its-kind sprayable maple syrup. The product is packaged in such a way that, with a press of a button, consumers are able to easily dispense organic Grade A maple syrup without the mess. The can itself is recyclable and doles out a portion-controlled amount of maple syrup, making it ideal for those who look to the product as a better-for-you [natural sweetener](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caloriefree-dessert-sauces). Innovation within the realm of maple syrup is creating the opportunity for brands to position the product as more than just a [sweet breakfast condiment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maple-french-toast-bites). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Sprayable Maple Syrup:** Sprayable maple syrup innovation is making maple syrup more convenient and mess-free. - **Portion-controlled Packaging:** Packaging that dispenses a portion-controlled amount of maple syrup is providing a better-for-you natural sweetener option. - **Reimagining Maple Syrup:** Innovative approaches to maple syrup are allowing brands to position the product beyond a breakfast condiment. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food Packaging:** The sprayable maple syrup trend opens up opportunities for creative and practical packaging solutions in the food industry. - **Health Food:** The portion-controlled packaging of maple syrup presents a disruptive innovation in the health food industry as a natural sweetener option. - **Condiments:** The reimagining of maple syrup as a versatile product creates potential for disruptive innovation within the condiment industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Buttery Maple Syrup Spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maple-butter-spread.md) - [Value-Conscious Pancake Syrups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maple-crest-pancake-syrup.md) - [Maple Syrup-Flavored Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canadian-maple-syrup-soda.md) - [Maple Syrup Awareness Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bill-the-maple.md) - [Maple-Flavored Tin Meats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spam-maple-flavored.md) - [Flavor-Enhanced Syrup Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-groovy-food-company-syrup.md) - [Experimental Foodie-Inspired Drink Syrups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-monin-syrups.md) - [Maple Syrup-Infused Butters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butter-with-brown-sugar-maple-syrup.md) - [Collaborative Restaurant-Branded Syrups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kraft-heinz-ihop-syrup.md)
