Embodiment

[0070] The following inventive examples and comparative formulations are provided to illustrate but not limit the invention as defined by the claims. Amounts listed are in weight percent.

[0071] Several chewing gum compositions were manufactured using WS-5 and their compositions are provided in Table 1 below.

[0073]

[0074] Alcohol and cooling agents are dissolved in the peppermint flavor prior to addition to the chewing gum.

[0075] **Co-evaporated aqueous mixture of sorbitol, mannitol, maltitol and glycerin.

[0076] The peppermint flavor used in Examples A, B, and 1 also contained 11% of another physiological cooling agent (or about 0.23% of the chewing gum), glutaric acid Esters, L-Isopulegol and Succinic Acid combination of esters.

Embodiment 2

[0077] The samples of Example 2, Comparative Example C and Comparative Example D were evaluated by a group of 10 reviewers, who were provided with a sensory questionnaire, wherein they were asked to rate the samples in terms of three characteristics: bitter taste, cool taste and fresh breath. They each chewed the sample for 12 minutes and were asked to rate the highest point of the rated characteristic the sample reached within that 12 minutes. The results are shown in Table 2.

Abstract

A chewing gum composition includes gum base, flavor, sweetening agent, and about 0.3% to about 0.6% ethyl ester of N-[[5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-cyclohexyl]carbonyl] glycine, commonly known as WS-5.

Description

Background of the invention [0001] The present invention relates to chewing gum. More specifically, the present invention relates to chewing gum products containing the ethyl ester of N-[[5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-cyclohexyl]carbonyl]glycine commonly known as WS-5 improved formulations. More specifically, the present invention relates to the production of chewing gum containing WS-5 as a physiological cooling agent. [0002] Many individuals who chew gum desire a refreshing taste in the gum, which most typically includes a cooling sensation. Peppermint oil is often used to create a "cooling" in oral products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, chewing gum, candy and other foods. Peppermint oil generally contains about 45% Alcohol, about 20% Ketones, about 5% acetic acid esters, about 5% eucalyptol and many other constituents. Peppermint oil is even used in non-peppermint products such as spearmint or wintergreen scented products to create this desired cooling effect. Ho...
