A chewing gum has a rolling compound comprising gum base, flavoring, and sweetener. The chewing gum preferably comprises between about 0.5 to 10 percent by weight rolling compound. The rolling compound preferably comprises between about 20 to 90 percent by weight gum base, 1 to 15 percent by weight flavoring and 5 to 75 percent by weight sweetener. The rolling compound preferably has a particle size between about 75 and 850 microns. A method for manufacturing the gum is also described.
摘要:
Chewing gum compositions and methods of preparation using carbohydrate syrup-plasticizer compositions to improve flexibility and shelf life characteristics. The syrup comprises carbohydrate solids and water, with less than 30% of the solids having a degree of polymerization (DP) of 1 and more than 20% solids with a DP of 4 or greater. The ratio of carbohydrate solids to plasticizing agent in the composition is between 0.5:1 and 100:1 and the total water content of composition is less than 20%. The syrup-plasticizer composition is prepared by providing a carbohydrate syrup or combined syrups with the proper carbohydrate solids distribution, combining a plasticizer such as glycerine or propylene glycol and evaporating water from the combined syrup plasticizer composition. Chewing gum made using the evaporated syrup composition includes about 5% to about 75% gum base, about 5% to about 75% of a sweet bulking agent, about 5% to about 75% of the evaporated syrup composition and optional ingredients used in conventional chewing gums.
摘要:
A coated chewing gum product with an emulsifier subcoat and method of producing the same are disclosed. Chewing gum centers are coated first by an emulsifier, preferably hydrated lecithin, and then by a hard coating, such as a sugar coating applied by conventional hard-panning techniques. Preferably a binder layer, such as gum arabic, is provided between the emulsifier subcoat and the hard-panned coating.
摘要:
The invention provides a flavoring agent comprising a menthone ketal. A method is disclosed for enhancing flavors in low moisture consumable items, including chewing gum, using menthone ketals. Chewing gum, oral compositions, pharmaceuticals, and low moisture foods containing menthone ketals are provided.
摘要:
A chewing gum composition having an extended sweetness and flavor intensity that is prepared from compositions comprising a gum base, flavor, sweetening and bulking agent, and Alitame present in an amount to extend the sweetness and flavor intensity compared to gum containing levels of sweetener that impart a normal level of sweetness to the gum composition. The sweetness could be provided by sugar, sugar alcohols, Alitame or other high potency sweeteners.
摘要:
On prépare un ingrédient de gomme à mâcher contenant du sucrose, par mélange d'environ 50 à environ 95 parts en poids de polyacétate de vinyle avec environ 5 à environ 50 parts en poids d'une solution comprenant du sucralose dissous dans un solvant. Ensuite, on sèche le mélange afin d'éliminer le solvant. On prépare une gomme à mâcher par mélange de l'ingrédient contenant du sucralose, d'une base de gomme, d'un agent gonflant et d'un arôme afin de confectionner une composition de gomme à mâcher.
摘要:
A delivery system and a process for making the system is provided for the gradual release of an active agent. The system comprises an active agent and a wall material. The delivery system is formed by melt spinning a mixture of particles of active agent and wall material into a fiber. The fiber has a longitudinal dimension and a cross sectional dimension, the cross sectional dimension being no greater than about 1 mm. The fiber has an exterior surface. The particles of active agent are dispersed throughout the wall material such that the particles of active agent are gradually released from the fiber when the fiber is contacted with a solvent specific to the active agent.
摘要:
A method of adding lecithin to chewing gum is provided by the present invention. The method comprises mixing from about 20 parts to about 70 parts by weight lecithin with from about 30 parts to about 80 parts by weight water. The resulting aqueous lecithin mixture is allowed to stand until a gelatinous lecithin forms. Thereafter, the gelatinous lecithin is mixed with an amount of a bulking agent such that the bulking agent comprises from about 25 parts to about 85 parts by weight of the resulting lecithin mixture. Whereupon, the lecithin mixture is mixed with chewing gum.
