You've got a lot on your mind right now with Christmas; however, the roaring 20's are also fast approaching which means it's time for some trend forecasting. Don't worry, we've done the hard work for you, and all signs show that 2020 is the year of….the blueberry. 

Yes, blueberries! Two of the world's biggest industry leaders have predicted blueberries to take centre stage next year. 

Firmenich, the largest taste company internationally, forecasts the 'classic blueberry' will be the flavour of the year due to its versatility and our increasing focus on health and wellness. According to a recent Firmenich social media study, blueberries were the number one superfood discussed online. Also, in a recent survey across 16 countries conducted with nearly 5,000 consumers, Firmenich found the top emotion associated with blueberries was happiness followed by a sense of comfort. 

Pantone recently made headlines globally, announcing Classic Blue as Pantone's Colour of the Year for 2020. Blueberry notes is a distinctive feature of Classic Blue and according to Laurie Pressman, vice president of the global purveyors of colour consulting, trendspotting and analysis for Pantone Colour Institute, "Classic Blue is a vibrant yet non-aggressive and easily relatable colour, she said. "It's also among nature's anthocyanin pigments possessing antioxidant and other health-fostering benefits. Think blueberries."
