A method for producing chewing-gum compositions containing xylitol introduced in the form of a powder as polyol, by introducing into the compositions at least one anti-caking agent, preferably having a specific surface BET of at least 200 m2/g. The hardness of the chewing-gum thus obtained is increased, such an increase being desirable, for example, for preventing the deformation of centers to be sugar-coated in the sugar-coating turbines or improving the stick-packaging rates. The anti-caking agent is previously mixed with the powdery xylitol, and the mixture may be provided in the form of a powdery composition of xylitol and the anti-caking agent. |
