Egg replacer products have become prominent in the recent years, due to the outbreak of avian flu in major regions such as North America and Europe. Also, the growth in inclination of consumers toward low fat and low cholesterol food products is fueling the demand for egg replacers, as increase in the prevalence of diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes has been seen in major Asia-Pacific countries.

On the basis of application, the market has been segmented into bakery & confectionery, savories, sauces, dressings & spreads, and others. By ingredient, the market has been segmented into dairy proteins, starch, algal flour, soy based products and others. The market, by source, has been segmented into plant and animal source. On the basis of form, the market has been segmented into dry and liquid form. By key region, the market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World (RoW).

This is due to various functional properties such as better binding, emulsifications, foaming, and flavor enhancing offered by egg replacer products. Furthermore, the outbreak of avian flu in major geographical regions such as North America and Europe has created an immense potential for the egg replacers market owing to rise in threat of avian flu-affected eggs.
On the basis of ingredient, the soy-based products segment is projected to be the fastest-growing during the review period. Cheaper cost of raw material and better functionality in terms of mimicking the characteristics of eggs are some of the important factors that escalate the demand for this ingredient.

The market for egg replacers in dry form is characterized by its properties such as long shelf life and better binding along with easy-to-use characteristics.
The Asia-Pacific region, which includes India, China, Japan, and Australia, is projected to be the fastest-growing, between the years 2017 and 2022.
