The invention relates to a method for producing chewing gum granules. The method comprises at least the steps of feeding a gum composition including at least gum base into an extruder (), pressurizing the gum composition in the extruder, extruding the gum composition through a die plate (), and cutting the extruded gum composition in a liquid filled chamber (). Flavor is added to the composition in the extruder prior to the granulation into cooling liquid. The temperature and pressure of the flavored gum composition is controlled so that the temperature is below 70° C. when the pressure is in the range from 1 to 5 hPa.
