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.

Multi-layered chewing gum composition having different rates of flavor

A highly palatable low calorie chewing gum composition with enhanced mouth-feel and improved chew having from about 5 to about 10% polysaccharide, a high amount of non-SBR/PVA gum base and a sweetener.

Reduced calorie chewing gums and method

A novel flavor/sweetener delivery system and chewing gum compositions prepared therefrom. The chewing gum compositions have prolonged flavor and sweetener release and comprise

Elastomer encapsulation of flavors and sweeteners, long lasting flavored

A chewing gum composition and process whereby the process comprises softening the base between a temperature range of about 40.degree. C. to about 60.degree. C.; admixing softening agents, sweetening agents and flavoring agents; extruding the composition prior to cooling; forming the composition into suitable chewing gum pieces without cooling; and immediately wrapping the pieces with a minimum of protective wrapping without prior conditioning. No moisture or moisture-containing ingredients are used in the process or added to the ingredients and the chewing gum composition has a final moisture content of up to about 0.9% by weight.

Non-staling chewing gum compositions and improved method of preparation

A chewing gum composition and process whereby the process comprises softening the base between a temperature range of about 40.degree. C. to about 60.degree. C.; admixing softening agents, sweetening agents and flavoring agents; extruding the composition prior to cooling; forming the composition into suitable chewing gum pieces without cooling; and immediately wrapping the pieces with a minimum of protective wrapping without prior conditioning. No moisture or moisture-containing ingredients are used and the chewing gum composition has a final moisture content of up to about 0.3% by weight.

Non-staling, substantially moistureless chewing gum compositions and

A chewing gum composition and process whereby the process comprises softening the base between a temperature range of about 40.degree. C. to about 60.degree. C.; admixing softening agents, sweetening agents and flavoring agents; extruding the composition prior to cooling; forming the composition into suitable chewing gum pieces without cooling; and immediately wrapping the pieces with a minimum of protective wrapping without prior conditioning. No moisture or moisture-containing ingredients are used and the chewing gum composition has a final moisture content of up to about 0.9% by weight.

A chewing gum base composition that does not adhere to dentures, removable and fixed oral prostethic devices, fillings or natural teeth. The chewing gum base composition includes an elastomer, elastomer solvent, polyvinyl acetate, emulsifier, low molecular weight polyethylene, waxes, plasticizer and fillers.

Non-adhesive chewing gum base composition

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.

Chewing gum composition having enhanced flavor-sweetness

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.
