Enhanced flavoring compositions containing at least one flavoring agent and an effective amount of N-ethyl-p-menthane-3-carboxamide are provided. The N-ethyl-p-menthane-3-carboxamide is present at about 0.04 to about 2.2% by weight of the enhanced flavoring composition. The invention further concerns chewing gums and confectionery compositions containing a flavoring effective amount of the enhanced flavoring compositions.

A digestible, biodegradable chewing gum comprising wheat gluten and a texturizing agent such as calcium carbonate, rice flour or ascorbic acid. The chewing gum can be swallowed and digested, or it can be discarded in ordinary compost waste facilities.

The combination of pepper-like constituents, such as piperine, and volatile formate esters, such as ethyl formate, is useful as a substitute for chloroform in pharmaceutical, oral hygiene and confectionery compositions.

An improved, reduced calorie, high base content chewing gum composition possesses a greater, more intense initial flavor impact of increased duration. The method of preparation utilizes highly fractionated or rectified flavor oils from which are removed the terpene and sesquiterpene components resulting in an enhanced and sustained flavor release from the gum base. The deterpenated oils have a lesser affinity for the gum base allowing for the use of higher gum base levels for the reduction of calories without the flavor oils being trapped therein. The sustained flavor release is also improved by the complete or partial renewal of several bitter tasting components previously associated with the oils.

Confections containing a volatile oil and designed for dissolving in the oral cavity containing novel volatile oil masking agents are disclosed. The volatile oil masking agents significantly suppress the perception of unpleasant organoleptic sensations such as bitterness or medicinal off-taste initiated by the volatile oil being released in the oral cavity. Masking agents such as fenchone and d-borneol are present in the confection in sensorially undetectable amounts to provide masking of unpleasant characteristics of volatile oils without detracting from the desired organoleptic sensations of taste and the preception of vapor action in the oral cavity.

Flavor enhancing and medicinal taste masking agent

Pleasant tasting, pleasant smelling edible oil compositions and a process for making same has been developed. The product comprises an unpleasant edible oil and an oil soluble sensory masking agent capable of producing a masking sensation for the unpleasant edible oil. The sensory masking agent is capable of producing a taste masking and/or odor masking sensation for the unpleasant edible oil.

Taste and odor masked edible oil compositions

A hard boiled candy composition having a unique flavor perception is disclosed. The composition comprises a sugar or sugarless hard boiled candy base and the following flavoring agents: corn mint oil, eugenol (or clove oil), cardamom and menthol.

Unique flavor composition

A procedure for preparing a palatable aerosol foam of unpleasant edible oil containing up to 80% oil is disclosed. This has been achieved by incorporating an inorganic complexing agent, water, a sweetening agent, a sensory masking agent and a propellant present in an amount sufficient by itself to function as the whipping agent and propellant into the oil to form a pleasant tasting suspension without an oily mouthfeel, unpalatable taste and unpleasant odor. Each teaspoon of aerosol foam will contain from about 2 to 4 grams of oil.
