A petroleum wax-free chewing gum with enhanced flavor release, particularly chew ing gums with increased perception of breath freshening, are disclosed. Enhanced flavor release is obtained with wax-f ree chewing gums where the Solubility Parameter, defined: as <IMG> of at least 5 % of the flavoring agent is at least 0.5 units g reater than, or less than, the average weighted Solubility Parameter of the gum base used to formulate the wax-free che wing gums of our invention. The greater the difference in Solubility Parameter of flavoring ingredients to the average w eighted Solubility Parameter of the wax-free gum bases the greater the tendency for enhanced flavor release.
