Problems solved by technology

However, the crystalline material impairs the sense of touch and preference in the mouth, and the use of L-menthol is also limited because it has a strange fragrance and bitter taste when used in large quantities
[0005] Although potentially caloric sugar alcohols such as sorbitol and xylitol have also been used, they exhibit relatively high hygroscopicity and thus pose serious problems in the manufacture of chewing gum
[0006] Furthermore, traditional chewing gum contains a center or has a coating, the properties of both types of gum can only be tasted by chewing each type of gum separately

preparation example 1

[0038] Preparation Example 1: Preparation of Gum Base Blocks

[0039] Gum base pieces were prepared using the predetermined amounts of ingredients shown in Table 1. The ingredients, except the fragrance, were thoroughly mixed (mixed) for about 30 minutes in a mixer preheated at 45°C to 55°C, and then cooled. Flavors are added to the cooled mixture to provide gum base pieces.

[0043] Preparation Example 2: Preparation of the Paste for Filling the Heart

[0044] Menthol was dissolved in a double boiler using predetermined amounts of ingredients shown in Table 2. Mix the menthol and cooling agent by adding ethanol to the cooling agent. Water is added to xylitol. The paste for the fillings was prepared by mixing the mixture of menthol and cooling agent with the aqueous xylitol with a homogenizer. The water content in the paste was determined according to the Karl Fischer method and the results are shown in Table 2.

preparation example 3

[0047] Preparation Example 3: Preparation of core-filled granules

[0048]In the case of using predetermined amounts of ingredients shown in Table 3, menthol was mixed with the cooling agent. The mixture was mixed with xylitol in a granulator for 20 minutes while water was added. Granules were prepared by passing the mixture through a granulator (12 mesh) followed by drying at room temperature for 24 hours, whereby granules for filling were obtained. The average diameter of the particles is shown in Table 3.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a center-filled coated chewing gum giving a feeling of refreshment and a preparation method thereof, and particularly to a chewing gum comprising a center layer filled with paste or granules with a predetermined size, a gum base layer surrounding the center layer and a coating layer surrounding the outer surface of the gum base layer, thereby enabling to prevent the ingredients of the center layer from being sunk into the gum base layer by limiting the temperature and humidity range when applying the coating onto the gum base layer surrounding the center layer, and also to provide a superior feeling of refreshment and crunch as compared to the conventional chewing gum comprising a liquid-phase or powder-phase center layer, and a preparation method thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a center-coated chewing gum with refreshing feeling and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Traditional chewing gum is prepared according to the following steps: In a preheated mixer, thoroughly mix sugar and sugar alcohols or other sweeteners as the main ingredients with a small amount of other food or food additives such as gum base, emulsifiers, softeners and Flavors, followed by extrusion, rolling, aging for 24 hours to 28 hours, followed by cutting and packaging processes. Traditional center-filled chewing gum is prepared in the following steps: after mixing the aforementioned materials, filling the center of the gum with sweeteners, organic acids and flavors, followed by molding and aging for 24 hours to 48 hours. [0003] Furthermore, International Patent Application Publication No. WO 2006 / 026298 discloses a center-filled chewing gum, the center of which is filled with a liquid material. US Pat...
