Baking Association of Canada Returns with ‘Proof Point’ Webinar Featuring Culinary Trendologist Christine Couvelier

Decoding 2026: Food Trends That Will Actually Move Your Business — A Members Webinar for Canadian Baking and Food Industry Professionals

OAKVILLE, ON, CANADA, April 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Baking Association of Canada (BAC) is pleased to announce the second installment of its national Proof Point webinar series, bringing together two of the food industry’s sharpest minds to help bakery and food business professionals navigate the rapidly shifting consumer landscape of 2026.

Titled “Decoding 2026: Food Trends That Will Actually Move Your Business,” the April 23 session will feature internationally recognized Culinary Trendologist Christine Couvelier of Culinary Concierge, moderated by BAC’s own Tricia Ryan. The one-hour virtual event is free for BAC members and non-members.

“The brands winning right now aren’t the ones following trend reports—they’re the ones who understand why people buy, what builds real loyalty, and how to read the signals before they become saturated. This session is built for professionals who want that edge.”
— Martin Barnett, Executive Director, Baking Association of Canada

What Attendees Will Walk Away With
This is not a surface-level scan of what’s trending. The session is a working webinar built to deliver:
• The trends that actually matter in 2026—flavour, format, and consumer mindset shifts with real commercial momentum, not recycled headlines.
• A deeper read on consumer psychology—understanding the ‘why’ behind purchasing decisions so professionals can anticipate demand instead of chasing it.
• A practical strategic filter—a framework for evaluating which trends align with your brand, whether developing new products or optimising what’s already on shelf.
