As consumers seek new and exciting experiences, flavour is becoming an increasingly important tool for coffee shops looking to refresh their menus and create new occasions. From Asian-inspired flavours and global food trends to the influence of cocktails and premium non-alcoholic drinks, this roundtable will explore where the next wave of flavour inspiration is coming from – and how operators can turn emerging trends into commercially successful menu propositions.
What to expect:
- Global flavour inspiration: Exploring the influence of Asian and other international flavours, and how operators can adapt emerging trends for European consumers.
- From cocktails to coffee: How cocktail culture and the growth of sophisticated non-alcoholic drinks are influencing coffee shop menus.
- Beyond the classics: Which flavours are resonating with consumers, and how can operators balance familiarity with discovery?
- From trend to menu: How do you turn a flavour trend into a commercially viable drink – from limited-time offers and seasonal launches to longer-term menu propositions?
Guest panellists and tickets to be announced soon.
