More Information
Summary:A non-adhesive chewing gum base composition is disclosed which demostrates reduced adhesion, and improved chewing satisfaction; it comprises in weight percent:wherein all of the ingredients of the gum base composition are mixed with each other in one step and under high shear mixing, with the elastomer being added first, except that the elastomer alone or the combination of elastomer and elastomer solvent may optionally initially be subjected to shearing action prior to the addition of the other ingredients.A process for producing the chewing gum base composition is also disclosed, which comprises mixing the ingredients of the base composition in one step. Preferably, the elastomer is charged first, and subject to high shear, after which the remaining components are added and shearing is continued. The present invention is economical, as it eliminates adherence to conventional critical processing parameters.
