Embodiment 1)

[0037] (Preparation of Spice Extract)

[0038] As the spice extracts, the following extracts were used for the extracts of Herba Herba, Capsicum, Japanese pepper, cinnamon, and black pepper. The extract of Liushencao is obtained by solid-liquid extraction with ethanol; the extract of capsicum is obtained by solid-liquid extraction with n-hexane, etc., and the solvent is removed after vacuum distillation. The Japanese pepper extract is obtained by solid-liquid extraction with diethyl ether; the cinnamon extract is obtained by steam distillation; the black pepper extract is obtained by solid-liquid extraction with n-hexane, etc., and the solvent is removed after vacuum distillation.

[0039] (compared to the manufacture of chewing gum)

[0040] As a control, peppermint chewing gum blended with the following substances was produced by the usual method.

Embodiment 2)

[0045] (Production of chewing gum containing spice extract alone)

[0046] In the basic formulation of the mint chewing gum as the above-mentioned reference substance, one of the five spice extracts (Liushencao extract, capsicum extract, Japanese pepper extract, cinnamon extract, and black pepper extract) was blended, 0.005% by weight, 0.04% by weight, and 0.20% by weight were blended, respectively, to prepare spice extract-containing peppermint chewing gum.

Embodiment 3)

[0048] (discussion of fragrance persistence)

[0049] Four fully trained professional evaluators (evaluators A, B, C, D) compared the flavor lingering chewing gums with the control and evaluated the perceived flavor.

[0050] As a result, the comparative product blended a slightly larger amount of menthol and a cooling enhancer, and had a refreshing feeling, a mint texture, and a refreshing feeling that lasted for about 20 to 25 minutes from chewing.

[0051] Regarding the flavor persistence of the spice extract-containing chewing gum, the results shown in Tables 2 to 6 below were obtained. In addition, Table 6 shows how much the respective flavor durations of mint chewing gums containing spice extracts are extended compared with the control substance, and the average time of 4 evaluators is taken.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention provides a food as an oral composition blended with spice extracts, especially a product related to the enhancement and persistence of the mint feeling in the chewing gum, which improves the persistence of the flavor of the chewing gum. That is, the present invention can improve the beneficial effect by improving the aroma and the initial sensation of flavor when tasting foods, especially chewing gum, etc. when a favorite product is left in the mouth for a long time, and can maintain this sensation for a long time. The present invention is a blending technology related to flavor persistence that can be applied to products other than chewing gum. It can provide not only confectionery as food, but also dentifrice and dental gel (Japanese: 歯用ゲル ), oral rinses, oral sprays, oral foams (Japanese: oral ムース), denture care products, troches, chewable tablets, and oral compositions in the form of strips that are directly attached to the teeth.
