摘要:
A gum composition is disclosed which has a substantially uniform soft chew from the initial chew, through the intermediate chew and on through the final chew. The gum composition can be a sugar or sugarless chewing gum composition or bubble gum composition. The gum compositions comprise a gum base, at least one sweetener, an acetylated monoglyceride, glycerin, and optionally, at least one gum additive of a type conventionally found in gum.
摘要:
A non-staling, reduced density bubble gum composition is provided by a method wherein a bubble gum composition having a preselected bubble gum base composition is aerated with an inert gas in a pressurized environment. In a preferred embodiment, aeration of the bubble gum composition is achieved by the injection of nitrogen gas into the bubble gum composition during a pressurized extrusion of the gum.
摘要:
A chewable tooth cleaning composition which removes dental plaque from the chewing surfaces of the teeth has incorporated into a chewing gum formulation about 20% to about 40% by weight, based on the weight of the total composition, of a calcium carbonate abrasive having a specific particle size distribution.
摘要:
A multi-layered chewing gum composition is disclosed. The composition has a moisture content of less than about 1% by weight of the composition and contains at least two layers each comprising a chewing gum composition. The chewing gum compositions of each layer comprise gum base in an amount of about 15 to about 60% by weight of the layer such that the difference in gum base content between the layers is about 3 to about 15% by weight. The chewing gum compositions of each layer also comprise sweeteners, flavors, and optionally, at least one other conventional chewing gum additive.
摘要:
A center-filled chewing gum having an outer chewing gum shell enclosing a cavity and a liquid center-fill. The liquid center-fill contains a fruit juice concentrate and an acid/buffer system.
摘要:
A novel flavor/sweetener delivery system and chewing gum compositions prepared therefrom.The chewing gum compositions have prolonged flavor and sweetener release and comprise(a) a gum base; and(b) a flavor and sweetener delivery system comprising flavor and/or sweetening agents encapsulated in a matrix comprising:(i) at least one elastomer;(ii) at least one elastomer solvent;(iii) at least one wax system;(iv) an excipient selected from the group consisting of carbohydrates, polyhydric alcohols and mixtures thereof; and(v) optionally spherical particles having microporous channels.
摘要:
The present invention pertains to a center-filled chewing gum composition having an outer shell enclosing a cavity and a liquid center within the cavity, wherein the outer shell comprises a gum base having an enhanced hydrophilic nature. In a preferred embodiment invention pertains to a center-filled chewing gum composition wherein the outer shell comprises a gum base comprising in percentages by weight of the gum base (a) an elastomer present in an amount from about 0.5% to about 20%, (b) a medium molecular weight polyvinyl acetate polymer having a molecular weight from about 35,000 to about 55,000 present in an amount from about 10% to about 25%, (c) an acetylated monoglyceride present in an amount from about 4.5% to about 10%, (d) a wax having a melting point below about 60.degree. C. present in an amount from about 6% to about 10%, and (e) a component selected from the group consisting of elastomer solvents, emulsifiers, plasticizers, fillers, and mixtures thereof, present in an amount to bring the total amount of gum base to 100%. The center-filled chewing gum compositions may be used with a wide variety of liquid centers. The present invention also pertains to methods for preparing the center-filled chewing gum compositions.
摘要:
A sugar containing chewing gum composition containing a chewing gum base, a sweetener, and a flavoring agent sorbed in the microporous channels of spherical particles wherein the channels increase the particles sorptive surface area.
摘要:
A chewing gum composition having extended flavor taste stability and decreased auto-oxidative potential which comprises a chewing gum composition containing a flavoring agent and a chewing gum base prepared from an elastomer mixture of isobutylene isoprene copolymer and polyisobutylene, waxes, elastomer solvent, polyvinyl acetate and glyceryl monostearate.
