A free fruit-flavored chewing gum is provided with enhanced long-term flavor intensity without compromising the initial flavor burst and without necessarily relying on encapsulation as a means of flavor enhancement. The free fruit flavor is enhanced by including, in the chewing gum, a sufficient quantity of a restrainer having a Solubility Parameter within +/-2.0 [J/m3]1/2x10-3 of the Solubility Parameter of the free fruit flavoring agent whose flavor is being enhanced. The free fruit flavoring agent is attracted to, and/or attaches to, the water insoluble restrainer to provide a controlled, yet highly efficient, release of flavor during chewing. |
