The outlook for sugar confectionery in Malaysia remains cautiously optimistic. While health concerns and economic pressures are reshaping consumer behaviour, the category continues to benefit from its affordability and emotional appeal.
Digital platforms are playing an increasingly important role in the sugar confectionery market. Social media, particularly TikTok and Instagram, has become a powerful tool for driving product discovery and engagement.
Health and safety regulations are becoming more prominent in the sugar confectionery space. Following a tragic incident involving a child choking on a jelly candy in early 2025, the Malaysian Ministry of Health has increased scrutiny on jelly-based products.
