Abstract
The present invention relates to chewing or bubble gum compositions that include a first region composition and a second, or gum, region adjacent to or surrounding the first region. The first region composition may be a center-fill composition, such as a liquid-fill composition. The second region includes a polyol composition including isomalt alone or in combination with other polyols. The addition of isomalt to the second region provides stability to the chewing gum composition and reduces the problem of leaking and migration of the first region composition into the second region. The multi-region chewing gum composition also may include a coating region which surrounds or covers the second region.
