High Integrity Encapsulation Product with Insoluble Fibers. A particulate extrusion encapsulation product in a glassy state is described including an encapsulate, encapsulated in a glassy matrix. The glassy matrix includes at least one modified starch, at least one carbohydrate and at least one insoluble fiber. The load of the encapsulate is typically from 0.01% to 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the encapsulation product. A method of making the particulate extrusion encapsulation product and food products containing the extrusion encapsulation product are also described.

High integrity encapsulation product

A glassy, particulate, melt extrusion encapsulation composition and a process of making the composition are described. The encapsulation composition is highly soluble in aqueous systems, has a low level of encapsulate on the surface of the particles, and has a narrow particle size and shape distribution. Food systems containing the encapsulation composition are also described.

A chewing gum contains a water-insoluble gum base portion containing a polyolefin thermoplastic elastomer; a water-soluble bulk portion; and at least one flavor component, which is cud-forming and chewable at mouth temperature.

Chewing gum and gum bases containing polyolefin thermoplastic elastomer

A chewing gum comprises a primary chewing gum composition comprising gum base, a sweetener and a flavoring agent and a food acceptable delayed-release modification agent. The delayed-release modification agent reacts with the primary chewing gum composition after a chewed cud of the gum composition is formed, causing the primary gum to exhibit increased environmental acceptability after the chewed cud is discarded.

Chewing gum with delayed-interaction modifier

A composition includes a first component containing phospholipids and a second component encapsulating the first component. The composition includes between about 10% and about 80% by weight phospholipids. The composition may be used in chewing gum to provide a gum cud that does not adhere to concrete and does not dissolve in the mouth while chewing.

Food product with an encapsulated lecithin material

A method of making coated chewing gum products comprises the steps of providing chewing gum cores; providing a first coating syrup comprising a bulk sweetener; providing an aldehyde flavor; providing a second coating syrup separate from the first coating syrup and comprising a dipeptide sweetener; and applying the first and second coating syrups to the cores and drying the syrups to produce a coating on the cores. Calcium carbonate or another antacid may be incorporated in the coating by being mixed into the first coating syrup or applied as a dry charge.

Method for making coated chewing gum products with a coating including an aldehyde flavor and a dipeptide sweetener

A chewing gum base essentially free of non-silica fillers, comprising high molecular weight polyisobutylene, optionally amorphous silica and polyvinylacetate and powdered lecithin present in the chewing gum composition and optionally spray-dried flavor in the chewing gum composition.

Chewing gum base and chewing gum compositions

A method of making coated chewing gum products comprises the steps of providing chewing gum cores; providing a first coating syrup comprising a bulk sweetener; providing a second coating syrup separate from the first coating syrup and comprising a high-intensity sweetener; and applying the first and second coating syrups to the cores and drying the syrups to produce a coating on the cores. Calcium carbonate or another antacid may be incorporated in the coating by being mixed into the first coating syrup.
