Expenditure on confectionery
In 2016, the average consumer expenditure on confectionery in Belgium was valued at approximately 160 euros per person. Consumers in Belgium spent nearly 30 euros per year on chocolate, and another 24 euros on candy and chewing gum.

The popularity of chocolate in Belgium is visible in the cookies market too, where chocolate cookies were the largest product segment based on sales value, at nearly 35 percent. The second-largest segment was the children’s cookies segment, which held a market share of just under 25 percent.Volume of confectionery consumed per capita in Belgium from 2010 to 2018, with a forecast for 2019 to 2021, by type (in kilograms)
