The subject of the invention is a novel chewing gum in tablet form which can be produced by direct compression of a gum formulation in powder form; the chewing gum thus obtained is characterized by a pleasant chewability which remains unchanged throughout the chewing period and is substantially identical to that of conventional chewing gums. The chewing gum in powder form is produced by a method which comprises the following steps: a) mixing of a soft basic gum with at least one sweetener and, optionally, at least one other typical chewing-gum ingredient, at a temperature of between 35 and 75 DEG C, b) cooling of the mixture thus obtained to a temperature of between 0 and -40 DEG C and preferably between -10 and -40 DEG C, c) grinding and subsequent screening of the mixture thus obtained to a particle size of less than 10 mesh, d) optional mixing of the powder thus obtained with at least one anti-agglutination agent, e) optional compression of the mixture thus obtained. |
